The Virtuous Woman


The only reward of virtue is virtue. Virtue consists, not in abstaining form vice, but in not desiring it.

A woman is not complete if she is single. A complete woman is one who undergo the process of marriage, pregnancy and child-bearing in her life. For the complete woman, life is a challenge to her. For the complete woman, it is not easy to be the perfect woman in this society. A perfect woman is someone who is able to look after the home as well as to bring in income for the home. At the workplace, the woman had to place all her heart and soul in her work ( but most of the time half her soul goes back to the children). Back home, the woman had to cater to the needs of the children and the husband. The woman had to bring her work back home too. The woman had hardly time for herself.

I am a woman, my mother is a woman, my sister is a woman. My sister-in-laws are woman. My mother-in-law is a woman too. My nieces are woman as well. I might not know much about my girlfriends' life as a woman, but I have so many 'close' women around me. Their lives, I can see. My life, I can feel and experienced. I understand woman and women -- What the men do not know and does not understand.

I have made a video with the song, "Only Love" by Trademark. What makes all these women in my life, holding on to their relationships and clinging on to their families despite all the men's betrayals and dishonesty? Besides virtues, there is got to be "Only Love". Love is what keeps the women 'moving' forward and looking forward everyday for another better day. I have added in motivational quotes in the video. I believe every women need motivation. Life is hard and motivational quotes will help the women to stay strong and strive for the better every day.

Only Love - Trademark


This is what I had written at Helium about Women and Virtue. It is just my personal view. It is impossible to have a perfect world where all women will be virtuous. However, that would be a nice and perfect world to live in.


Women and virtue
Eve had disobeyed God. She could not resist the temptation of eating the forbidden fruit from the Garden of Eden. Eve had chosen to believe the serpent than God. She had urged Adam, his husband to taste the forbidden fruit, though Adam was reluctant initially. After Even's persuasion and persistence, Adam and Eve tried the forbidden fruit, which God had come to know about it. That was the day where the first human had betrayed God and sins was passed down from generations to generations.


Many problems in this world involved the women. Where there is man and woman, there is love. Where there is love there is hatred. Money are essential to human's life and money is also the cause of many evils doing in this world. Love is also the resultant consequences of many unhappy grudges and hatred that exist among love rivalries.

Human beings who are never content with their life, seek to find more money and ways to increase wealth in their life. Women who has no sense of morality, right or wrong in their principles, seek for married men and even old men, for the purpose of money and not for love. They can resort to anything such as destroying the family of the married men or to indirectly caused the death of the old men so as to attain all his inheritance. Single women who wanted to have more money retort to clubbing, engage in part-time night hostess and 'sell the bodies' to men who are willing to offer a big sum for their virginity or sex. Men who cannot resist such temptation tell lies to families, seek ways to stop their workforce, so as to experience the 'taste' of 'merry-making' with these 'hot babes'. In order to have more clients to their patronage, some women 'drugged' their patrons, so that these men will always be 'happier' with them. There are just too many kinds of immoral women around.

It takes two to tango. It needs two hands to produce a clap. If all the women in this world is virtuous, this world would be a better place definitely. For one thing, aids will not be on the rise, though there are still the homosexuals around. However, if all women are of great virtue, they would be peace in family and peace in the nation.

A woman of virtue knows what is right and wrong. A virtuous woman will do what is morally right. For the single women, they observe chastity, and command the respect of every men who have every rights to woo them. Sex in the religion, is something that is practiced only after the couple is married. For the married woman and man, sex is meant to the for the two of them. There should not be any adultery. Single woman should not go after married man and single man should not go after married woman also. This also means that married men and women should not be the third parties in a married couple.

A woman of virtue would place the welfare of her family in her heart. She knows the meaning of ethics and she follows her principles of life. A virtuous woman should know when to say "No" and she has a great sense of discernment. She is not greedy. For being contented, a woman of virtue has love for her family and herself. Following her own code of ethics, the woman of virtue does not succumb herself to temptation easily. A woman of virtue should be what every woman strives to be for her own good and for love of the nation, so as to attain peace and harmony in families and in the world. If every women are virtuous, this would be a world of peace and harmony. There would be healthier people and more smiling face. There would be more fulfilling family life and the parents of the virtuous women would feel bliss too.
