Naturally Born Leaders

*Sometimes when I hear ladies say things like..."I don't really need education, once I get a rich man to marry, I'll just settle down with him and that's it." I just stop and wonder.
As a lady when you go into marriage at an early age you fail to achieve things that you would have achieved (1) because you now have a husband to report and submit to (2) because you now have your children to attend and respond to. If your husband doesn't take all your time then your children will.
We as women should start placing ourselves at the pinnacle in the society, we should start learning and practising how to be independent and successful. No man wants a dull and dependent woman. In fact (though they try to hide it) most men love and admire career women. Most men sees young women as being materialistic and having no goal in life. I am not saying going into marriage is bad all am saying is that marriage is not the only hope, let's try to add some stars to our names, let us start being visionaries. Its time we start eyeing high positions including that of the seat of presidency. Yes! Because what you can't see you can't seize, what you can't imagine cannot emerge and what does not cross your mind cannot cross your life. So let's start dreaming and seeing ourselves as leaders and not just wives.
Who else has the power to give life, to work, to nurse, to tolerate, to create, to love and to struggle at the same time if not we the women. We currently accomplish most of the work essential to life and continued survival of human kind yet our place in the society continues to be undervalued. We are being portrayed as being childish, dangerous, irresponsible, weak, unreliable and generally inferior to men. Why? Because we the women do not know our worth, we do not understand the power we possess, we do not know that we can actually brake or make anything we please. We have allowed ourselves to be pushed to a particular corner like we mean less. We as women have a greater chance of surviving and succeeding than the men. We have greater opportunity given to us by God but we have allowed ourselves to be blindfolded from all this opportunities. Ladies think they can only use their body to get any man they please when they can use their femininity(not sex) to get any position they so desire. When a woman is brave, ambitious and confident she is admired and loved and she wins the heart of many.
Ladies, women, we are naturally born leaders. Let us stand up now and take our rightful place in the nation.
