EVERY WOMAN

wouldn't it be great men if women were just filled with laughter, dance, sex appeal, and you simply loved being around them all-the-time? a very close buddy and i were talking last night about our frustrations with the behavior of some women. this i will declare-despite my frustrations: i love the women in my family! they have their ways that are sometimes challenging for communication or to relate to. but all-in-all.....they are awesome! my sister is very independent and has never needed a "man" to feel valued or secure. my mom is loved by everybody who meets her. you instantly become family in meeting her. my cousin (who is like an older sister)thinks i am the most talented person in the family. all of them speak their minds, not into games, independent, love being who they are, and love me with great passion. and don't let anyone speak negative about me or with any of my brothers.....no comment (lol). and yet, i have difficulty (as most men do) understanding alot of women, as a whole. this has been a continued challenge for men since the days of eve. still, they are desired to be loved and treasured-despite any issues we may find in them (or i should say some). not every woman is the same.....but every woman are the same in the sense.....they are women (whatever that may mean for women of today).

WOMEN IN PIECES

WOMEN ARE LIKE PIECES TO A PUZZLE
THAT YOU CANNOT QUICKLY BE PUT TOGETHER
MATCHING THE PICTURE ON THE BOX

THEY MUST BE GENTLY HANDLED
NOT FORCED TO FIT INTO SPACES WE WANT THEM TO
AND HELD TENDERLY
AS TO NOT BEND EDGES TO THEIR BEING
CAREFULLY STUDIED
TO PICTURE THEM AS THEY ARE
AND TOUCHED WITH CARE
KNOWING THEY ARE VALUED
NOT OWNED

THEY MUST BE GIVEN GREAT THOUGHT
AS THE PIECES COME TOGETHER
AND WHEN THE PUZZLE IS COMPLETE
YOU ONLY LEARN THAT THE PIECES
YOU WERE GIVEN
HAS CHANGED DURING THE PROCESS

AND SO
THE MYSTERY OF WOMEN
CONTINUES IN EVERY WOMAN
AS EVERY WOMAN COMES TOGETHER
IN PIECES
TO COMPLETE THE PUZZLE
CALLED WOMEN

A PUZZLE
THAT IS NEVER EVER COMPLETE
AND NEVER EVER PUT TOGETHER
TO FINISH THE PICTURE
THAT WE THINK WE SHOULD SEE

FINAL THOUGHT: women can't be solved by anyone. they come in pieces and the pieces that are given to us-keeps us guessing at what to do or say to keep the peace between the two sexes. some women are great about being "approachable" and loved. if you know any woman that you feel that way about who is a friend, family member, co-worker, or spouse-let them know how much you appreciate them as women. especially if being identified as a woman is of great value to them....to own.

QUESTION: so do you have great women in your life?
