»Last night I came across a woman without wisdom...«

by Adnasis Egnahs

Last night I came across a woman who could not reason or stand her ground, her perceptible and obvious confused mind resembled childishness and idle mind.

I found her irritating and I could not stand her, she was the opposite of me, I really could not bear to be in her presence any longer, her back and forth thoughts and expressions rendered me speechless every time she would put her foot into her mouth... She was embarrassing and I could not relate to her, in fact I felt sorry for her...

She said and did things that were not thoughtful and tactful, simple minded, and just plain naïve, I really could not get her point of view on things, cause she kept changing it...

Last night I came across a woman, who could not stick to her word, she will lay the ground rules, and turn around and break them, unlike me, she was dumb, and she started thinking with her heart, stupid girl might as well eat with her nose...

Last night I came across a woman without God, she started telling him what she wants instead of asking him to lead her in the right direction, she started praying and said "God, please make this work out" and then turn around and say "God, please help me get out of this" instead of "God please lead to me to your way, for I know not where my future lies, I am of limited wisdom, I need you to hold my hand, lead me and shelter me"...

Last night I came across a scared, confused, pitiful, unorganized, unworthy, unGodly, woman with weak ethics no I mean girl...

She could not be me... I am nothing like that... but the person she was talking to called her by my name...
