The real woman

We live in a world that has grown by leaps and bounds. It is a far cry from the world my mum knew or I knew when I was much younger. The tendencies we had as we grew up has changed. I watch now with some alarm and misgiving. I had been one of those who thought my mother missed the point when she insisted that a woman did more for the country by simply being herself.

In essence, what is the real role of woman here on earth? Is it to be the president of a country as we all insist on gender equality? Is it to be married? Have children? or just be the creature her Creator intended her to be as the motivating engine and facilitator of life here on Earth. The real role of a woman is 'to be' The question is however to ask, who is a woman? We tend to shrug and smile at that question. particularly womenfolk themselves who wonder if one had lost her marbles when you ask. A woman from Biblical information is the creature the Almighty trusted enough to continue with creation and help humanity find its soul.

A real woman would engender in the male an instant recognition of something higher. Something he can't place his finger on but that gives him a sense of peace, longing for something noble. I wonder if we are not missing the point when we make so much talk about gender equality and forget the fact that not one sex is really inferior to the other. We may be complementary, if we so choose but each of us have a responsibility to fulfill our real roles. The man, with his coarse brute strength is not to be confused with cave mentality neither should we lull ourselves into calling woman the weaker sex and make token recognitions of their importance.

I wish women could see that they change the world for the better if they could really identify themselves and recognize their singular and special importance to the continuity of the species referred to now as Homo Sapiens. It is not the fashion, not marriage, not motherhood, but the essence of being a woman, the transition of humanity from one level to the other. Being a woman is the noblest duty one can have and when you can really identify and define true womanhood, you would be pleased to learn and follow your roles as a real woman.
