Maya Angelou's Best Poem Ever
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…
- something perfect to wear if the employer or date of her dreams wants to see her in an hour...
- a youth she's content to leave behind....
- a past juicy enough that she's looking forward to retelling it in her old age....
- a set of screwdrivers, a cordless drill, and a black lace bra...
- one friend who always makes her laugh... and one who lets her cry...
- a good piece of furniture not previously owned by anyone else in her family...
- eight matching plates, wine glasses with stems, and a recipe for a meal that will make her guests feel honored...
- a feeling of control over her destiny...
- how to fall in love without losing herself…
- how to quit a job, break up with a lover, and confront a friend without ruining the friendship
- when to try harder... and WHEN TO WALK AWAY...
- that she can't change the length of her calves, the width of her hips, or the nature of her parents..
- that her childhood may not have been perfect...but its over...
- what she would and wouldn't do for love or more...
- how to live alone... even if she doesn't like it...
- whom she can trust, whom she can't, and why she shouldn't take it personally...
- where to go... be it to her best friend's kitchen table... or a charming inn in the woods... when her soul needs soothing...
- what she can and can't accomplish in a day... a month...and a year.
