Wednesday Musings: Some things to ponder, some things to inspire and some things to reflect on…

The other day my mom forwarded me this beautiful poem by Maya Angelou, and I thought I must share.

A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE ... 


  • enough money within her control to move out 
and rent a place of her own, 
even if she never wants to or needs to...
  • something perfect to wear if the employer, 
or date of her dreams wants to see her in an hour...






A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE … 


  • a youth she's content to leave behind....
  • 
a past juicy enough that she's looking forward to 
retelling it in her old age....
  • a set of screwdrivers, a cordless drill, and a black lace bra...
  • 
one friend who always makes her laugh...and one who lets her cry...







 


A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE ....... 


  • a good piece of furniture not previously owned by anyone else in her family...
  • eight matching plates, wine glasses with stems, 
and a recipe for a meal, 
that will make her guests feel honored... 





EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW... 


  • how to quit a job, 
break up with a lover, 
and confront a friend without; 
ruining the friendship...
  • whom she can trust, whom she can't and why she shouldn't take it personally...
  • whom she can trust, 
whom she can't, 
and why she shouldn't take it personally... 





EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW... 


  • what she would and wouldn't do for love or more...
  • how to live alone...
  • even if she doesn't like it...

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...

  • What she can and can't accomplish in a day..
  • a month..
  • a year...     
P.s. And now it's your turn: what would you add to this?
