When a Woman Is Just a Woman

She is just a woman when more than all the things she can, she stands by her man...That's God’s plan. 06 June 2015 NOTE: The above is not a categorical statement of the author. Surely there are some situations which make the above impossible, like the presence of abuse in any form, or concubinage. I know people are in various situations...I do not purport to push my ideas without considering some exceptions at the risk of looking like someone talking from a moral high ground. There's a real world out there after all, the horrific realities of some can only be imagined by those of us who are fortunate enough. It is just my opinion that under normal condition, a woman with that kind of conviction, together with her man, will have laid the foundation of a strong family unit.

well, said, and yes, those exceptions we all understand, dear. About the visual contest, you do not have to finish with the word you started with, but I naturally did it and was pleased with that "full circle" affect I came up with!! Just wanted you to know, you did not have to begin and end with the same word.

You talk from an ideal point of view, Kim. When a vase gets broken, it is hard to look at it as if it were still brand new. I stand by you in what you say; this would also apply to the man! hugs // paul
