"Every Woman Should Have"
...one old love she can imagine going back
to... and one who reminds her how far she
has come...
...enough money within her control to move
out and rent a place of her own even if she
never wants to or needs to...
...something perfect to wear if the employer
or date of her dreams wants to see her in
an hour...
...a youth she's content to leave behind...
...a past juicy enough that she's looking
forward to retelling it in her old age...
...a set of screwdrivers, a cordless drill,
and a black lace bra...
...one friend who always makes her laugh...
and one who lets her cry...
...a good piece of furniture not previously
owned by anyone else in her family...
...eight matching plates, wine glasses with
stems, and a recipe for a meal that will
make her guests feel honored..
*************************
"Every Woman Should Know"
...how to fall in love without losing herself...
...how to quit a job, break up with a lover,
and confront a friend without ruining the
friendship...
...when to try harder... and when to walk
away...
...that she can't change the length of her
calves, the width of her hips, or the nature
of her parents...
...that her childhood may not have been
perfect... but it's over...
...what she would and wouldn't do for love
or more...
...how to live alone... even if she doesn't like it...
...whom she can trust, whom she can't, and
why she shouldn't take it personally...
...where to go... be it to her best friend's kitchen
table or a charming inn in the woods... when
her soul needs soothing...
...what she can and can't accomplish in a day,
a month, and a year...
