A Wife

Fear now and learn to have courage...

I've been a husband for 20 years and finally my two daughters asked me this question: Who is a wife?

A wife gives birth. She takes care of the children. She makes sure the kids eat properly and are kept clean. She washes the children's clothes and keeps them mended. She arranges for their schooling, makes sure they have their adequate social life with their peers, takes them to the park, etc. She takes care of the children when they are sick. She is always around when the children need special care. On top of that, a wife teaches the children about values of what is right and what is wrong.

Probably a wife goes to work too and yet have to take care of the husband's physical needs. She keeps the house clean. She keeps the husband's clothes clean, iron, mended, replaced when need to be, and sees to it that the husband's personal things are kept in their proper place so that he can find what he needs the minute he needs it. She cooks the meal. She plans the menus. She does grocery shopping, prepares the meals, serves them pleasantly and then do the cleaning up. She takes care of the husband's when he is sick and sympathize his pain. In fact, she looses her own sleep just to make sure he sleeps soundly when he is sick. She goes along when the family take the family vacation so that someone will continue to care the husband and the children especially when he needs a rest and changes of scene.

When her husband goes to work, a wife prays for his safety. She prays for his good fortune be it from the sky, the sea, the ground or even from inner earth. Yet she seeks his forgiveness.

A working wife is rather more difficult as she never bother the husband with rambling complaints. She worries about being late from work. She listens to him when he feels the need to explain something difficult. A more intelligent wife (like their mother ... hehehehe) have to lower down her level of intelligence so that the husband's ego won't get hurt (errr .........). She asks permission nearly about everything. On top of that, a wife always know the time he needs to be left alone.

A wife defends her husband with her own life especially against her nasty relatives. She is not only obedient to her husband but also to her in-laws and her husband's relatives. She learns quickly everything about her husband's side - faith, principles, custom, language, their likes, their dislikes, their businesses, their problems etc.

A wife takes care the details of the husband's social life. When his friends come over, she keeps the house clean and tidy beforehand. She prepares special meal, serves it to him and his friends and never interrupt when he talks about things that interest him and his friends. She makes sure the children never bother him and his friends so that the guests feel comfortable. She makes sure they have their ashtrays. She serves them coffee at time they prefer it. On top of that, a wife knows that he needs a night out by himself.

A wife always smile. She is romantic. She prepares herself well in bed. She is sensitive to his sexual needs. She makes love passionately and eagerly when he feels like it. She never demand sexual attention when he is not in a mood for it. She remains sexually faithful to him so he doesn't have to live his life with jealousies. In fact, what worries a wife most as a wife is the possibility of not satisfying him in bed.

A good comment by nour:

A wife would be "someone who is not perfect makes flaws once in a while and will do anything for her family, massive strength behind all those softness and patience". :)
