O Strong And Beautiful Woman!

“She was an oasis of tranquillity in this turbulent world,

A paragon of simplicity and elegance in this era of materialistic desires, and,

An epitome of substance and reality in this superficial epoch.”


The aura of power and confidence around her will exert you to dwell into her energy, with an utmost ardour and avidity. And you can’t resist this woman, she, who is born with a charismatic personality, is connoted to stir people with her exuberance.


She’ll make you feel eathful in her presence, you’ll sense the way you open-up to this woman the way you never did to anyone else before, you’ll observe how you unveil the deepest moats of your soul before her and yet be content that you won’t be conjectured for pouring your heart out.

And you can’t help but fall in love with her essence; you’ll be drawn towards her soul in an unrestraint manner. The fashion in which she gazes into your eyes will be much more intimate than words can ever be; enough to drown you in her quiddity.


You will discern that she is the one if just a smile on her face can melt away all your stress in a jiffy. Even if she bares to you her deepest scars and darkest secrets, you will still love her with all her flaws and impairments; and this is love, sublime in all respects, the one you neither experienced earlier in your life nor are you likely to witness sometime in the future. And then, maybe for the first time in your life, you’ll assimilate the distinction betwixt lust and pure love. You’ll comprehend the difference between concupiscence and a feeling of intense endearment and a deep emotional attachment to a person.


And this is why you can never fall in love with beauty alone; you can lust over it, you can be lured to own it, you can love it with your eyes and body but not your soul.

But ah wait! Who said she wasn’t beautiful?


She was altogether a contemporary definition of beauty. Yes, she wasn’t beautiful like the girls in magazines, after all that beauty is photo-shopped perfection, but she was alluring for her imperfections. The way she laughed and giggled sans the fear of tomorrow, the way she was optimistic about everything in her vicinity and the way she made a sobbing face smile, unmitigatedly made her beautiful. No, she wasn’t beautiful for something as ephemeral as her looks; she was beautiful for something as perpetual as her soul, which is fabricated of pure gold.


Those who are ignorant of her worth are mere fools; she is not going to waste her time competing with other women to get a man to realize that she’s worth being with. She is once in a lifetime kind of a woman and if a man can’t figure it out on his own, it’s his loss.

Just because she is a little difficult doesn’t mean that she is not worth your time and endeavour. For an exiguous reason like this one, never miss out on a good person who can make your life great, the good ones never come easy after all.


And if you take the love a faithful woman like her for granted considering she has no option other than you, then you’re exceedingly mistaken. She has plenty; it is just that she never entertains that crap. Just remember- after you fail to keep her and after she’s gone for once and forever, you’ll miss her, you’re going to look for her in every girl you meet next, and she won’t be found.


You’ll break her soul into a million pieces, you’ll rip her emotionally; she’ll crash, she’ll cry, but like a phoenix rises from the ashes, so will she; stronger than ever, head held high and smiling. She is a queen and has mastered the art of turning pain into power. She’ll move on and never return, and I’ll say I feel sorry for you. She overlooked your flaws and your inability to love anyone but yourself. She could have anyone in this world but every time she chose you. But now you are just a crease in her past, a bruise on her chest and a memory that is fading rapidly with every day that is passing by.


And now she is a little difficult because she once invested all her loyalty and trust into a coward, a man who awakened her love with no intention of loving her, and a man who mistook the diamond he had for an ordinary stone.


One day he’d say he loved her and the other day he was afraid of commitment. One day he called her the woman of her dreams and the next morning when he woke up to reality, she was just another normal girl to him. His love was inconsistent and a strong woman will take an inconsistent love for a non-existent love. She doesn’t need this anymore. She patently doesn’t need a man who can just dawdle around so that nobody else can have her attention and she is just a back-up plan in case he alters his mind, which in reality, he never will.


And now she has trust issues. The mere thought of endowing all her time and efforts into one person again and be left with nothing in the end, petrifies her. It is not that she was born this way, she also fell in love once just the way millions of us fall every day, but misfortune on the part of her man played its role, he could not keep her the way women like her were meant to be kept. From then on she was a bit scared of love because love would mean some falling and she was afraid of heights.


Circumstances have forced her to be her own guardian angel, her own caretaker. She learned at an earlier age that no prince on a white horse is going to arrive at the castle of her dreams and take her away from reality. Fairytales are better to be read in books than craving for in actuality. She has the intrepidity to kill the monster in her story of life and crown herself in the absence of a king.


Her heart is as soft as the evening wind murmuring among the willows but it’s her responsibility to make it appear like a fierce forest fire; because the world has forced her to wear her pain like the grandest of diamonds around her neck. And a man who dares to love her must learn that despite being as calm as the Heaven’s serenest deeps, there is a fire within her; if loved correctly, she will warm your home and if abused, she’ll burn it down.


She has built strong walls against her heart which are broken only for exceptional people, only on some special days, to let them in. And when you enter you see an entirely new woman; a woman whose countenance is as rigid as an iceberg but in reality is as soft as the snow. This is when you realize that she is the one who has the divine ability to transform you into a better human being provided you treat her the way she deserves to be treated.


By emphasizing on the way she must be treated doesn’t mean there is some difficult way like these women are kept. In fact, it is the simplest of all. You don’t need to buy her expensive things or take her to dinner every night or even every weekend. You don’t need to give her the world. She wants the little things. If you make her feel that she is your priority. Or if you randomly kiss her cheek. Or you text her randomly saying that you miss her. Or say I love you beautiful. Or good morning beautiful, then that’s all she cares about. She cares way more about these little things than anything else.


Dear Men, these women are rare on this earth; feel privileged if you’re blessed with one such in your life.

But at any point in time don’t forget, though guarded, yet she is a strong woman. And the most beautiful part of loving a guarded woman is that when she lets you in, it doesn’t mean she needs you. She stopped needing people a long time ago, it’s because she wants you. And that is the purest love of all.
