Mission rescue
Someone once said that women are like the ocean: calm on the surface but fathoms deep. I’m sure they were talking about the Pacific. But even if women were likened to the more tempestuous Atlantic, they are still a far cry from being anything so fluid albeit feisty: at least in an ocean you can see a storm coming miles away!
So what we are pondering this week is what makes a woman sad. It can’t be a definite thing for often that which makes them happy can also make them sad. It also can’t be something random for various men in various instances have cited being admonished for similar situations rising out of different circumstances.
All we know is that it is triggered by the presence (or absence) of something (or nothing) and it can last for an indeterminate period. How is a man to tackle this? Again, the answers are vague. Not doing anything would amount to inaction and hence is undesirable. To do anything merely provokes reactions from the other party thereby landing the poor soul (man, id em) in a further fix.
Well the solution is simple. Women are nature’s most beautiful creation, so divine in form and complex in structure that if you could stick them in a bottle and cork them up for a few years, they would even make wine seem like an aerated beverage. Just like with nature, we have no option but to lie low when calamity strikes, to curl up, brace ourselves and pray while the worst passes us all around, the same is it with women. Know that if the lady is unhappy, you will have to take some of the flak for it – as I have been party-trained, it is always somewhere my fault. And quirkily and illogically enough, I’m good with it. Because, on the flipside, women are the rock we men need. The women-ocean analogy may be flaky, but the one about one behind every successful man isn’t remotely untrue. So crawl out from under the bed and go rescue your damsel in distress, even if you didn’t put her there in first place.
