Women were not born into this world to be hurt.
I often hear stories of women being hurt by their partners. Even to the point of physical violence. And often over trivial matters. I cannot fathom it.
Women were not born into this world to be hurt.
A woman is born to a mother who loves her deeply. She is raised alongside a father who toils, whose only happiness is coming home to find a little human waiting for him. Her parents never stop raising their hands high in prayer, asking for goodness for their daughter.
When she grows up, she decides to walk alongside you. To fill your days. Indirectly, you have taken her from the parents who raised her for years.
And then? Foolishly, you hurt her heart, you hurt her body.
Women were not born into this world to be hurt.
Even if she is wrong, even if there are things you don't like about her, that is not the way. A true man is one who is best with his family, with his wife and children.
No human being in this world enjoys being treated harshly, not even yourself.
Hold her hand, embrace her heart, and talk.
Humans are guided by their hearts and minds. Speak kindly. Invite her to think. Don't treat other humans like stones that cannot be changed unless struck with a hammer. Humans can change at any time.
Women were not born into this world to be hurt.
Women were born into this world to be treated with the utmost care. They are here to receive love. To be the most reliable co-pilot sitting beside you.
