A man who lies can’t lead. A man who cheats can’t lead. A man who never takes accountability can’t lead. A man who lets pride, anger, and ego control his decisions can’t lead either. Leadership starts with character. If a man can’t be honest, disciplined, responsible, and respectful, he has no business expecting anyone to trust him with a household.
tolerating always turns into resentment. at first, you call it patience, then love. but what it really is, is self abandonment. every time you swallow a boundary, excuse a pattern or silence your discomfort, something inside you keeps score. eventually, the bill comes due.
Every woman in the comments is celebrating her life, while a lot of the men are trying to convince her she should feel ashamed. That says more about their fears than hers.
Your daughter just got her first period.
Do not tell her she is a woman now.
Tell her what estrogen does.
Tell her what progesterone does.
Tell her her cycle has four phases and each one will feel different.
Give her information. Not a new identity.
Being a single woman is one of the ultimate forms of spiritual protection.
Some women are so provided for energetically, no one is allowed to interfere with that provision.
@sil_vee_yah Keeping a bad connection alive just in case you need a favor later is like keeping a poisonous snake in your closet just in case you need a belt. It’s a terrible safety net.
