A WOMAN SHOULD..

A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE
one old love
she can imagine
going back to..
and one who reminds
her how far she has come..

A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE
enough money within her
control to move out and
rent a place of her own
even if she never wants
to or needs to..

A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE
something perfect to wear if
the employer or date of her dreams
wants to see her in an hour..

A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE
a youth she's content
to leave behind..

A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE
a past juicy enough that
shes looking forward to
retelling it in her old age..

A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE
a set of screwdrivers,
cordless drill, and a black
lace bra..

A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE
one friend who always makes
her laugh.. and one who lets
her cry..

A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE
a good piece of furniture
not previously owned by anyone
else in her family..

A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE
eight matching plates, wine
glasses with stems, and a recipe
for a meal that will make her
guests feel honored..

A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE
a feeling of control over
her destiny..

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW
how to fall in love without
losing herself..

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW
how to quit a job,
break up with a lover,
and confront a friend
without ruining the friendship.
and how to change a tyre..

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW
when to try harder.. and
when to walk away..

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW
that she can't change the length of her calves,
the width of her hips,
or the nature of her parents..

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW
that her childhood may not have been perfect..
but its over..

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW
what she would and
wouldn't do for love or more..

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW
how to live alone.. even IF
she doesnt like it..

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW
whom she can trust,
whom she cant,
and why she shouldnt
take it personally..

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW
where to go..
be it to her best friends kitchen table..
or a charming inn in the woods
when her soul needs soothing..

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW
what she can and cant accomplish
in a day..
a month..
and a year..

Know that you are truly loved and thought of by your friend and that they only wishes the best for you and your life.
