I received this forward from my colleague....and this is so VERY TRUE!!!
SALUTE TO WOMANHOOD!
Remember, when u marry a working women you should
marry with these facts as well.
Here is a girl, who is as much educated as you are;
Who is earning almost as much as you do;
One, who has dreams and aspirations just as you have
because she is as human as you are;
One, who has never entered the kitchen in her life
just like you or your Sister hasen't, as she was busy in studies and
competing in a system that gives no special concession
to girls for their culinary achievements
One, who has lived and loved her parents & brothers &
sisters, almost as much as you do for 20-25 years of her life;
One, who has bravely agreed to leave behind all that,
her home, people who love her, to adopt your home,
your family, your ways and even your family name.
One, who is somehow expected to be a master-chef from
day #1, while you sleep oblivious to her predicament
in her new circumstances, environment and that
kitchen.
One, who is expected to make the tea, first thing in
the morning and cook food at the end of the day, even
if she is as tired as you are,maybe more, and yet
never ever expected to complain; to be a servant, a
cook, a mother, a wife, even if she doesn't want to;
and is learning just like you are as to what you want
from her; and is clumsy and sloppy at times and knows
that you won't like it if she is too demanding, or if
she learns faster than you;
One, who has her own set of friends, and that includes
boys and even men at her workplace too, those, who she
knows from school days and yet is
willing to put all that on the back-burners to avoid
your irrational jealousy, unnecessary competition and
your inherent insecurities;
Yes, she can drink and dance just as well as you can,
but won't, simply
because you won't like it, even though you say
otherwise
One, who can be late from work once in a while when
deadlines, just like yours, are to be met;
One, who is doing her level best and wants to make
this most important relationship in her entire life a
grand success, if you just help her
some and trust her;
One, who just wants one thing from you, as you are the
only one she knows in your entire house - your
unstinted support, your sensitivities
and most importantly - your understanding, or love, if
you may call it.
