Wisdom is knowing that good intentions are not a substitute for good judgment. Being kind doesn't require being blind, and being honest doesn't require being defenseless.

[Dr. Majeedat Abdul_writes 🩺 @MajeedatAbdul]

What I find very disturbing is how dispensable we make wives sound in this part of the world.

“Send her to her father’s house”. “Divorce her”.
“Take another and let her have competition”.

Almost like they are objects to be replaced and not partners to reconcile and live with.

No one talks about how relaxing it is to talk to an emotionally intelligent and regulated person.

I'm fifty-three years old with veiny hands and knuckles that crack when it rains, and I'm wearing an 11-carat ring that could probably be seen from space. And I don't care what anyone thinks about it.

My husband gave me the center stone twelve years ago after my hysterectomy, when I spent three months convinced I was disappearing into irrelevance. No more babies, no more "potential," just a middle-aged woman with surgical scars and night sweats. I wore that stone on a chain for years because it felt too ostentatious for my finger, too much attention for someone who'd spent her whole life making herself smaller.

Last month he surprised me with this setting, added two side stones for our daughters without telling me. Twenty-eight and thirty years old now, both of them living their own lives, both of them so far beyond needing me the way they used to. He said he wanted me to see them every time I looked down, wanted me to remember I built something that outlasts my fertility and my smooth skin and whatever else I'm mourning these days.

I posted it in a jewelry appreciation group on Tedooo app where I sell my vintage finds, and the comments ranged from supportive to vicious. "Too flashy for someone her age." "Those hands have seen better days." "Why would anyone need something that big?" One woman actually suggested I should be "more age-appropriate" in my choices, like hitting fifty means I'm supposed to disappear into beige cardigans and self-effacement.

Here's what I wanted to say to her but didn't: I've spent decades shrinking myself to fit other people's comfort levels. Making myself quieter, smaller, less demanding of space or attention. And I'm done. This ring is enormous and unapologetic, exactly like I'm trying to be in this second half of my life. My daughters see it and smile because they know what it represents - not wealth or status, but their dad telling me I'm allowed to be seen. That I'm worth being seen.

So yeah, it's big. It catches on everything. It's probably "too much" for a woman with hands like mine. And I've never loved anything more.

A wedding can be beautiful and the marriage can still be terrible.
We spend so much time preparing for one day that some people forget to prepare for the years that come after it.
The wedding is an event.
The marriage is the real work.

Do you agree or disagree?

You’re telling me a woman’s saliva contains a micro RNA that indicates if she has endometriosis and instead of waiting 10 years for diagnosis she could just spit into a test tube and find out in like a couple days? actually, yes.
I read a lot about women’s health and I try to share what I learn on this account and turns out that the UK is rolling out a test called the Endo test through their NHS.For evidence collection for the next three years because the clinical trials are that promising for the Endo test they want to gather evidence in the real world with real patience and all the variables that come along with it and this is such amazing news because currently the way we diagnose endometriosis is through a surgery which obviously comes with so much risk and not just delays and delays and delays the eventual treatment. one in 10 women have endometriosis so you probably know someone and if you do you know how incredibly painful this condition is so the idea that we can cut the diagnosis time down significantly is so massive

Every six months in my office, we used to contribute ₦100,000 each to buy foodstuffs and share among ourselves.

This time, two of my colleagues failed to contribute. After we finished sharing the foodstuffs among those of us who contributed, one paint of onion and three pieces of dried fish remained.

One of them jokingly suggested we give the remaining items to them for free.

We told them we had already decided to give the leftovers to our gateman.
