The love of a good woman; A man’s perspective.
“Mature love is composed and sustaining; a celebration of commitment, companionship & trust.” - H. Jackson Brown Jr.
Of the many underestimated experiences in life is being loved by good woman.
Hopefully and humbly speaking on behalf of men, such a woman is hard to recognize. In a time where men are being told to act against their hard-wired primal instincts for many foolish reasons and agendas, men find it difficult to put together an image of who or what a good woman is.
Is the definition of a good woman dependent on culture? Origin? Period of time? Public opinion? I still cannot tell precisely what factors must and must not be involved in defining such a key term.
In my never-ending search for meaning and with my belief that one must define their purpose and know where they are voyaging as opposed to floating aimlessly, I have stubbled upon quite an interesting discovery.
I STILL cannot define what a good woman is; albeit, I believe I may have understood what loving and being loved by a good woman feels like.
Only the love of a good woman brings true responsibility to a man. The love of a good woman makes a man question his every choice and action. “Will this serve OUR ultimate purpose and journey?”. “How will this affect where WE are headed?”. Questions a man starts asking himself after having lived a life of self sufficiency and self service. Quite the change in narrative.
The love of a good woman does not stop there. It manifests into several aspects of a man’s life. It transforms a man into the best version of himself. Feeling enormous strength and courage, yet great weakness and vulnerability. Both simultaneously.
It brings peace, quiets down the noise. It focuses him and sharpens his thinking.
Only a fool would gamble with something so precious and rare.
A man does not fall into this type of love. He steps into it. They both step into it. They don’t fall for one another. They rise to one another.
