She is the entire universe. She is warm-hearted, she has the wisdom of biggest monks, she is absolutely a wonderful person to be with and she is a whole. She is this and some much more. In true sense, she completes the world. Without her existence the world would be incomplete, there would be no life at all. She is the origin of new life that comes out and takes shape in the world. Yes, she is none other than a woman. She is one of the most wise creatures of God.
There does not exist a set of wise women or a dumb woman. Every woman and every human being definitely holds within her the seed of wisdom. Some people tend to listen to the noise of those lessons, while others prefer to turn a deaf ear to that noise. That’s where the difference between wise and dumb exists. Women have struggled to make a place for themselves in society. It still isn’t complete though. It’s a process which has a long way. Like it or not the truth is that women all over the world keep confronting realities of indolence and discrimination.
“At all times in my life, there has been a woman that took me by the hand in the shadows of a reality that women know better than men, shadows through which they are better oriented.”
-Gabriel García Márquez-
There are many traits of wise women Here I have listed down a few key virtues that define wise women.
Respect other women- Envy is one of the malignant flowers that bloom very easily in a female heart. Women who are wise understand this reality as they have invested part of their lives reflecting upon this reality. These wise women very well understand that questioning other women doesn’t make them any better. In fact, they are quite opposite and take pride in rejoicing the triumphs of their female friends.
Great sense of humour– Good sense of humour is one of the key traits of wise women. They know how to laugh out the worries of life as there is no point in crying over problems and ironies of existence. They also strongly believe that laughter helps you accept the inevitable.
Living out of fairytales- They are just like other women who believe in happy endings and fairytale-like life. However, at some point in life, they realize that life is much better when lived in true and real sense. They don’t depend on any one of their happiness. These women find their own happiness and hold only themselves responsible for their happy self.
Self-Care- There exists a huge difference between self-care and vanity. For such women who are wise self-care is more about the protection of their well being. For it matters how they feel about themselves and not what people feel about them.
Well, this was the 23rd shade of women and 3 more to go. Stay tuned for next in line which is X.
