A week ago,
I was at the mall people watching and noticed a woman grabbed her man’s arm
when another woman walked passed them, as if to say, “He’s taken.” It didn’t
appear that the other woman was interested in her man, but the gesture of her
grabbing her man’s arm unintentionally insinuated, “I am insecure.”
Many women
have often made the mistake of gripping their man’s arm when another woman
walks by or into the vicinity. Ladies, do you really know what you’re working
with? And I don’t mean in just physical appearances. There will always be
another woman prettier than you, so therefore, you shouldn’t hang all your
security into your looks because eventually you’ll become insecure when gravity
and fine lines start to take place.
God made you
fearfully and wonderfully from the crown of your head to the sole of your feet.
There are other things about you than just your looks that make you attractive.
Another woman may be prettier than you are, but she may not be more attractive
than you are to the person of interest. Just because you are pretty that
doesn’t mean you’re attractive. So the next time those feelings of insecurity
start to shift in, write a list of characteristics that you have that make you
attractive and place the list in view of a reminder of what you’re working
with.
Remember, if
you don’t know what you’re working with and that you have more to offer than
just your looks, then how is he supposed to know and treat you as such?
XOXO,
