So I have one sister. Biological. Then I have other sisters. By different mothers and different fathers. I love them to bits. I have daughters. The eldest actually adopted me. She chose me to be her father. Her biological father lives and is my very very good friend almost equal to a big brother.
Most of my male friends love their mothers in such manner it is beyond human comprehension. They love their fathers too.
I find it sad when men decide to engage in verbal altercations with women and allow it to degenerate into something else.
Tomorrow is promised none hence we must be careful of our actions. I have learnt that the mouth that eats pepper is also used in eating salt. Likewise, when the goat was busy littering the streets with its mess, little did it realise it was making its own buttocks/a… dirty.
I will always advocate for the woman. I don’t care who is in the wrong but for the fact that she is a woman, I will not insult or physically attack.
I am married. To a woman. My best supports are women. I just read something here on FB. The tears of a woman are the tears of her Creator. If you, a man can bear that pregnancy and still cater for the home, please you deserve applause. Until then, until the camel goes through the eye of a needle; until …..
Respect the woman!!
