Gosh, it’s only 2.45pm and I am already exhausted!! But I know, I am not the only one and have to keep on until 11pm/12am. WHY? Because I am a woman.
Women are expected to be everywhere. At the office, earning some money, at the grocery shop, buying stuff for the house, at family reunions, solving problems, in the car, picking up the kids, at home, breastfeeding and baking… Being a woman is far from what Marylin Monroe portrays.
Of course, there are women fully enjoying their femininity, time and keeping the nails shiny and polished but that’s not most of us. Most of us are just mad!!! We had hard time or maybe didn’t even have the choice to pick the life we want. Do we want to have a loving husband and a family? Or do we want a successful career? Or be a good housewife and mother? Or do a job we’re passionate about? Or earn personal money and have some savings? Or travel the world and explore new horizons. Well of course, we want it ALL.
We are ready for no sacrifice. We jump from a business meeting to the cleaner to going back making lunch to then the office to picking up the children, to going back to the office…I am not finishing this thought because it’s too long.
So if we are tired and exhausted, I think that’s understandable. Many of us who are superbusy women and moms also decide that with all the things they have to do, they still manage to get massage appointments, go to the hammam, the hairdresser and find time for themselves.
I am a woman myself and I am stunned at how much women can do. I think they should be called magicians.
In these tough times, women find less and less help. Sisters, cousins, aunts, everyone is busy with his/her own life. The woman has to do it all by herself facing daily challenges and solving daily problems.
To all women out there, you are beautiful magicians!!
