Be delicate, my sweetest love,
With my heart in your hand.
My heart, which has been made fragile by the cruel words of mankind.
And despite such fragility,
Where even the slightest pressure could crumble the pieces,
I trust you to hold it.
For though your hands have been calloused and worn by the Earth,
They are still gentle and hold my heart tenderly.
My heart in your hand,
Many would think to shatter to pieces.
And yet my heart stays whole,
For you make it so.
A hand to hold the pieces close,
So that I may love the one that holds it.

Are Women Equipped with the Essential Qualities for a Fulfilling Life?
The Importance of Self-Love and Self-Respect for Women A woman must not lose the most beautiful thing within herself, which is self-love. Self-respect and self-love are essential qualities that are independent of a woman’s beauty. If a woman lacks self-love, she will be trampled on like a lowly carpet, and others will despise her. All human beings are equal, and therefore women should not lower themselves in any way.
