A Woman's Love

Trey Songz once said:

Shawty, all I got is a dolla and a dream

Is you gonna roll wit me?

You see, I've tried a 9 to 5 and it just don't fit me

I can get us out the hood and have us living good

Ya feel me?

But I ain't leaving here if you ain't with me....

Wow, Trey, pretty powerful. I think that a lot of women who are truly, truly in love with their man would hear this and quickly decide to stretch that dollar to feed the family for a year and be by her man's side until his dream came true. And even if his dream never came to fruition, that same woman would stay by her man's side letting him know that everything is ok and they are going to make it anyway.

But what happens when the woman is by her man's side, urging him to make his dreams come true and the man never takes the initiative to make things happen?

You guessed it...The woman keeps urging her man and being his cheerleader regardless. Because that's just what women do.

It's something about a woman that makes her so ambitious that she campaigns others to be just as ambitious as she. She wants her children to grow and be adventurous (somewhat) in order for them to learn all that they can about any and everything possible. She wants her man to feel empowered and inspired so that he can do for his family in the best ways possible. She wants to see her man's and her children's dreams come true, sometimes at the expense of her own. It's something about a woman's love and belief that should make those whom she cares for want to jump up and make things happen. Unfortunately that does not always occur. Children often slack off, and men.....well, they usually wait for the woman to do things before they even considering doing things on their own.

But it really doesn't matter because true women, who have real love for their man/children/friends/family, will keep right on keeping on; urging loved ones to be the best that they can be even when they refuse to be anything at all.  That's just part of a woman's love.
