Women can never keep a secret, they say. I beg to differ!
Most often than not, men refer to women as creatures as roughly synonymous to gossip machine. I, personally, am taken aback whenever I hear boys, comment "please don't tell it to her, if you don't want the whole world to know!". What an absolute insult! Seriously, my blood boils up with anger!
Nevertheless, I wouldn't yield to this false perception toward women. Neither will I ever possess-- not even a whisper, of gossip in me. For I am determined to prove that women are not interested with the 'juice' of a secret, rather, women, or I, for that matter, am interested at the care and love I can undividedly accord to those whom who share to me with their utmost trust their...deepest secret.
Besides, I don't intend to contribute further vexations to men, as a woman being woman alone is complicated enough for them. Thus, gossip is not in me, and never will be. A secret is a secret. It makes life easier.
But in my defense, a woman's heart alone is already a dwelling of secrets. How can a woman who lives by it, create a loop hole for her own shame? A woman is naturally a secret holder. She holds it in her hands...she keeps it in her heart. Everything is guarded in her heart, for her heart is sealed and locked...not anyone can simply get through it.
Women long for a secret, not so they can gossip about it but just because they can keep it.
