Choice is a limitation
When you make a choice, you accept the limitations of that choice. To accept limitation requires maturity.
The child has not yet learned that it can´t have everything. What it sees it wants. What it does not get it screams for. It has to grow up to realize that saying ´YES´ to happiness often means saying ´NO´ to yourself…
…To choose to do this is to choose not to do a thousand things…
Woman can and ought to be judged by the criteria of femininity, for it is in their femininity that they participate in human race. And femininity has its limitations. So has masculinity…
To do this is not to do that.
To be this is not to be that.
To be a woman is not to be a man.
To be married is not be single.
To marry this man is not to marry all the others.
It is never really easy to be a woman of GOD… To be tough but sensitive to GOD´S WORDS…
Just LET ME BE A WOMAN…
