To understand that home is not a dump yard for office tensions,
To cope up with lecherous looks and snide remarks on the streets,
To instill confidence in her little son that he can count beyond five,
and to gladly reward him when he does,
To relate to her responsibilities at home and work from a mature perspective,
and to balance both,
To make a thirty-two-year-old man realize the relevance of the first sentence mentioned above,
To forgive him for some unspoken indignations,
To lie to her friend that the swelling on her face is just because of a nasty fall from the stairs,
To take her son into her reassuring, warm hug when he is terrified by a bad dream in the middle of the night,
All in all…it takes a lot to be a woman.
