a real woman

I know this is very unusual, but I was asked to share what I thought a woman of virtue is for a special worship. These are my thoughts and what I aspire to be like. I'm sure people know of a couple more they could add.

A Woman of Virtue

A woman of virtue does not accept the reason, “Because that’s the way it is.”
A woman of virtue listens.
A woman of virtue votes for candidates and knows why.
A woman of virtue finds her value in God’s eyes alone.
A woman of virtue is patient.
A woman of virtue compares herself to only herself.
A woman of virtue listens to criticism and praise and sifts both for the gold.
A woman of virtue realizes people matter more than success.
A woman of virtue gets angry about injustice and does something to change it.
A woman of virtue does the dirty work.
A woman of virtue pursues God as she wishes a good man would pursue her.
Women of virtue will hurt, but will be comforted,
Because when a woman of virtue falls, God holds her hand and helps her up.

a man of virtue does not stick his penis in a vacuum cleaner nostle. a man of virtue washes his underwear more than once a year. a man of virtue is not afraid to say, "damn u look hot with your hair in rollers and wearing really big pants!"
