Full-time job called womanhood

The other day one of my old friend asked me if I was working. With a simple ease of mind I said "No. Not working in an office. Though I have a full-time job."
"Oh, you working from home? For which client?" asked she.
Her curiosity interested me. She became more alert to hear my answer. Her expressions said "Give me that client."
My lips smiled after hearing those unsaid words. Calmly I replied "I have a full-time job called womanhood."

As a girl attains her puberty, she feels miserable at the advent of womanhood. I used to be angry with God for giving us women the monthly botheration. But now I think there is something to look forward to every month.

Mixed feelings, insecurities, ambitions, confusions make her teenage interesting. And as she grows up further she gradually nurtures strength and determination within her self. Most of her strength comes from the kindness of her heart. And once she decides to spend her life with a man, there is no looking back.

To feel the essence of womanhood, you have to experience motherhood. Its wonderful how another human being gets nurtured in your own body. You get the best opportunity to grow up another of your kind. This blessing thankfully is given to women only. I wonder what creatures men would have nurtured!

A woman is busy whole her life making the world a better place for her loved ones. Initially, its her parents, then siblings, friends, then comes husband, children and the list doesn't stop till the end of her life. She makes home from the four walls of a house. To add to these responsibilities, is another part she has to manage throughout her life- hormones. She is governed by hormones from puberty to menopause. To work calmly and love full-heartedly with such fluctuations is definitely an art which only woman can do. So, cheers to womanhood!
