What every woman should have

Tsippora a écrit:

MAYA ANGELOU'S'
BEST POEM EVER [/size]

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...
o[size=9]ne 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...

A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE ..
a feeling of control over her destiny...
how to fall in love without losing herself..

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...
how to quit a job,
break up with a lover,
and confront a friend without;
ruining the friendship....

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW......
when to try harder... and WHEN TO WALK AWAY....

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...
that she can't change the length of her calves,
the width of her hips, or the nature of her parents..
that her childhood may not have been perfect...but it's over...

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.. .
whom she can trust,
whom she can't,
and why she shouldn't take it personally...

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...
where to go...
be it to her best friend's kitchen table...
or a charming Inn in the woods..
when her soul needs soothing...

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...
What she can and can't accomplish in a day...
a month...and a year...

Tellement vrai!! Je voulais surligner certains passages, mais finalement chaque mot, chaque phrase a un sens tellement fort!

I think we usually know when to walk away. C’est souvent le courage de faire ce pas qui nous fait défaut. La peur de l’inconnu et/ou de la solitude.

Par contre une fois le pas fait, on fini par se rendre compte que ce n’est pas aussi dure qu’on ne le pensait.

CRYMAnce que tu dis es vrai; moi je connais des femmes pas spécialment congolaises mais qui m'ont dit qu'elles voulaient divorcées mais à causes des enfants, du confort etc etc et une fois qu'elles avaient franchi le pas, elle regrettaient les années perdues.

Elles au moins ont ce courage là mais selon elles ce n'est pas facile.

Associee ya moto Afizz, selon les jours, il y a des passages de ce poeme qui s'appliquent plus que d'autres. Comme en ce moment, pour moi c'est ceci:

A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE ..
a feeling of control over her destiny...
how to fall in love without losing herself..

Je veux etre seule maitresse de ma destinee, avec tout ce qu'elle comprend de difficulte et de bonheur! Je prefere ne pas me perdre en amour....pas toujours facile mais avec un peu d'effort, c'est possible.

A+
