What Makes a Woman

After that last blog, my fabulous readers demanded that I write what characteristics I think separate the women from the girls. So here we go!

#1-A woman holds herself accountable for her actions- She doesn't blame the world for her problems. She doesn't whine that she was misunderstood or that someone else could have done something for her. She tries hard and doesn't accept less than her best.

#2-A woman does what she can to be accomplished- She's always doing something. She enjoys doing many things and loves to grow and perfect her interests.

#3- A woman is open minded- She takes all things into consideration and does what she knows is best with what information she has.

#4- A woman can speak her mind without sounding preachy- She recognizes that what she has to say is important and that it is best to convey those thoughts in a short-sweet-to-the-point manner.

#5- A woman is compassionate- She is a nurturer. She's the go to lady when you need advice or just to be understood. She has your best interest at heart and genuinely cares about what's going on in your life.

#6- A woman is resourceful- She makes things happen and just has a way of getting exactly what she needs. When she can't get what she needs, she either finds a way or finds a substitute that is equal if not better than what she originally had in mind.

#7- A woman is a fierce friend- She does not hesitate to stand up for those she loves.

#8- A woman is honest- She will tell you exactly what you need to hear, whether you want to hear it or not.

#9- A woman has a sense of honor- She defends what's right and sticks to her guns even when it's not what's in vogue to do so.

#10- A woman loves herself- She knows that she can't truly love anyone unless she is happy with who she is and enjoys being herself.

#11- A woman knows how to have fun- She loves to laugh and make other people smile. She enjoys the best things in life and makes time to play.

#12- A woman places high value on family and expects those with whom she associates to respect that- Self explanatory.

There you have it. I find ladies like this in some pretty interesting places so it's hard to say where you'll spot them. But you'll most definitely know her once you start talking to her.
