A woman is like a tea bag ~
you can't tell how strong she is
until you put her in hot water.
Eleanor Roosevelt
Women have always been strong emotionally, mentally, physically, and spiritually. It just has not always been highlighted in the Bible or history, except for what I would term as token examples or descriptions in generalities.
Women have a physical endurance that stretches throughout the day and then grows more elastic to gather in additional responsibilities with family schedules and sometimes as caretakers to seniors in the family. Daily activities can span across a variety of tasks.
It seems that women apply their emotions to solving problems and may give more time to resolution options. Women can be very analytical and strategic in order to navigate through a day or through life. They are assisted by 'gut instinct' or intuition which is used more often than realized.
Women have always held a spiritual aspect of themselves whether displayed religiously or not. Routines frequently reflect a need for special moments as in lighting candles, gifting flowers, securing girls night out, exercise or what can be considered as 'down time' or a time for nurturing the self.
Women can be very diverse and still create a sacred space to embrace friendship or sisterhood. Usually, we physically meet a woman and then experience how she thinks and reacts. A sense of bonding is frequently established where the spiritual self can unfold.
It is through this body, mind, and spirit process we discover the very core of each other. Through experience, we create a weaving together and test the strength of the thread that binds us. If it holds or supports us through thick and thin, the weaving will become a life time masterpiece more valuable than gold!
