My Beloved Sister,
I will always say it, that women are great people. And so are you. I have been in touch and observed many women in the past few weeks. When I think of all they do – as sisters, friends, girlfriends, mothers and wives, I just appreciate them.
One of the best ways of getting experience before starting a job is through internship, as we see in most professional courses. Being married is a job on its own. Before you go in there, it is good you have an idea of what goes on in there. Remember that you are going to be a queen over an empire – your home. Whatever comes out of it, including your children, would be affected greatly by you whom most household responsibilities fall on.
Visualize your home. How do you want it to be? How do you want your family to be? What kind of rules and laws will guide your home? Think about these.
Then take a step further and visit homes. Observe, interact and learn. Take out the best things from each of them. How best is it to talk to your king and treat him? How best is it to correct children at different ages? Would you need to be a full-time housewife or a part-time career woman? What do wives do? What do mothers do?
Your period of being single is not a curse. It is a blessing. You have an advantage many women who rushed into marriage did not have.
If you are married, keep learning how to treat your king and raise a family. There are older women to learn from[1].

FIRST!!!
You are so right in that marriage and relationships are a job itself! You have to work towards it! This was a great piece!!
And thanx for using moi as reference..m blushing..lol..
hmm...wifehood and motherhood no easy but God is our strength.
i enjoyed reading this.
Great advice, to look at my singleness as a blessing. I have been observing and watching couples and families forever it seems; that's probably why I think I'm ready to have my own partner.
lol, I'll keep waiting for God's time sha.
First time here! Lovve it, lurve it, LOVE IT! May I welcome you to my blogroll!
Wow, love it. Be a queen in your own home and run your own empire, then run it (whatever "it" is) outside. Having the household in order is a MUST! How can we take authority over the devil when we can't even take authority over the dirty dishes!
Internship
You girls should do the internship and learn how to treat us right.lol
I love the way you refer to the head of the family as the king.
Nice post Rita, you know you always do it right.
@ oracle....I dont know if that was the proper thing to say.
Because men really need to learn how to treat their women(s)...whichever you have. Both need to go to some sort of internship in order to keep the relationship alive.
how are you Rita?

@Lady A: That’s a wise one “How can we take authority over the devil when we can't even take authority over the dirty dishes!” I used one of your blogs as a related link to this blog. Hope you don’t mind.
@Oracle: Where have you been? Thanks for your great words…but we girls are doing the internship to treat a “King”. Please go and learn how to be a “King” and treat a “Queen” else… We only marry those with blueblood…lol
@Kin'shar: I’m fine, dearest. I’ve implied to Oracle that this is not a one-sided thing…
@Reverence: Welcome back.
