What Is a Woman

WHAT IS A WOMAN A woman is someone who reveres God and His laws above all else. She knows wisdom, honor and dependability are more valuable than money or possessions. She knows that respect is earned and fear is not respect. She knows that true beauty comes from a gentle spiriit and a kind heart and she is known for her goodness, patience and compassion. She is aware of her responsibilities and performs her duties happily with pride in a job well done. She strives to teach these qualities to her children. She loves her husband and her children and is faithful to both striving to be a source of pride to them. What is a woman? She is the backbone of the family. She is the heart of the house teaching patience, love and virtue. She is the glue that holds the family together. Judy Ball

What part of Canada? Oh by the way good rhyme and reason about a woman will read a man next but sure I'll find the same thing only from a woman's point of view. Interesting? Reason I asked have relatives in Montreal and Caraquet New Brunswick. So tell me how long you have been on the soup?Wife and I live in Buellton, Ca. in the mountains on the coast. small town like it that way. Continue your work in this field, your doing just fine. God bless

They're pretty much the same but differ just enough like people are. Men and women are really the same but God made us differ just enough to make us interesting to each other. We are the ones who screwed things up. Glad you like this my friend. Thanks bunches for stopping by. God Bless, JB
