Do You Know What You’re Working With?

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,
