Women outshine each other in their own essence, with men being merely companions in life, their presence being inconsequential.
People often say, 'Women outdo each other in their choice of husbands.' I've heard these words since I was a child. When one person teaches their daughters this, others follow suit with theirs. I find it rather juvenile and I don't believe in it.
I believe: Women outdo each other in their own selves, not in their choice of husbands! Besides, there's nothing that can be brought forth as a yardstick to measure the value of women!
In this modern life, I believe women surpass each other not by the quality of their husbands, but by how much love and goodness they bestow upon themselves. For if that were the case, would unmarried individuals suddenly become losers?
Believe me, getting married or not doesn't prove you're better or increase your self-worth in any way. Don't think marrying some tycoon as your husband will make you somewhat superior. Everything has its downsides, and you'll have to live with them if you assume they define your worth. Women outdo each other in their own selves, not in their choice of husbands!
I believe an educated woman surpasses one who merely idles away her days in household chores.
I believe a woman who understands the world around her surpasses one who spends her days gossiping about trivial matters or immersed solely in household affairs.
I believe a financially independent woman surpasses one who relies on her husband's monthly allowance to support the family.
I believe a woman who knows how to love herself never has to live with dependency or self-restraint.
Therefore, women outshine each other in their own selves!
Every woman dreams of a cozy, happy life, but good things always come with corresponding prices. And until one realizes that men are simply partners in life, we'll continue fantasizing about the perfect husband, father, or man of our lives. Nobody is perfect, and nobody is obligated to treat or love you as you do yourself. I always remember a phrase I casually heard somewhere, 'Only our parents love us unconditionally, everyone else loves us conditionally.'
If your husband once loved and pampered you greatly, perhaps there's something about you that led him to believe those affections were justified. Maybe you're beautiful, maybe you're wealthy, maybe you're talented... but when all is said and done, when you're no longer youthful, when you've lost your possessions, when misfortune strikes... Do they truly still love you as they did before?
Don't live in rosy dreams with a prince charming riding a white horse to welcome you into a fairytale castle. Why should a prince choose a Cinderella when there are other princesses? Oh, because that's a fairytale, my dear! Fairytale scenarios seldom happen in real life. Princes always marry princesses, while Cinderellas spend their lives serving wicked stepmothers and stepsisters. Therefore, remember: Women outdo each other in their own selves, not in their choice of husbands!
So live in a way that allows you to hold your head high, whether or not you have a prince charming, you remain a beautiful princess. If you have a prince, you'll become a queen, otherwise, you'll be a queen yourself. Between ruling a kingdom and being secondary to a man, what would you choose?
Men are ultimately just men; they love you when they have some reason to, but you should love yourself regardless. If one day the whole world turns its back on you, you must be your strongest support in the stormy days. Women outshine each other in their own selves, with men being merely companions in life, their presence being inconsequential. Most importantly, you need to know how to love yourself.
