  2. Assalaamu Caleykum Is a HOUSEWIFE Really Unemployed Many women to day are independent, successful, educated, professional, and self-sufficient. These are the standards whereby we measure "success" and people with these characteristics are what we regard as "intelligent" as opposed to "uneducated." However, careful analysis reveals that the woman of the house fulfills the following roles: 1. She has to be a wife to her husband. 2. She has to be a mother to her children. 3. She is a teacher, teaching her children between right and wrong. 4. She is a tutor, assisting with homework. 5. She is a psychologist, using her intellect in daily struggles with husband and children. 6. She is a counselor, counseling the children when a bully hits them. 7. She is a financier, budgeting the household expenses. 8. She is a chef, preparing the meals. 9. She is a baker, baking on special occasions. 10. She is a tailor, mending clothes. 11. She is a driver, ferrying the kids to and from school. 12. She is a buyer and store clerk, ensuring that all basic necessities are in the house. 13. She is a switchboard operator, answering the constantly ringing phone. 14. She is a receptionist, answering the door and receiving guests and visitors. 15. She is a waitress, feeding everyone at mealtime before she feeds herself. Considering the above multi-faceted roles of our wives/mothers/sisters in society, it really surprises me when a woman is asked what job she has and her typical reply is "Oh, I don't work. I just sit at home. I'm a housewife." Housewife indeed! This "housewife" is actually the CEO, the general manager of your house. She is the senior executive and fully fledged board member of the fraternity that you call home. She ensures that everything (most of the time) runs smoothly with military precision. (Sadly however, some women fritter their life away by sleeping, shopping, and gossiping.) On the few occasions when things do not go as expected, men tend to let the wives know in no uncertain terms that they are dissatisfied (by verbal abuse, or sometimes even physical abuse). But how often have we informed these same women about the times when things do go well? How often do we give compliments? Do we counsel gently and encourage wisely, or do we assume that "there is no point talking to her … after all she is just a woman." ??? Wassalaam

    WC?

    My wife, sadly, has been ill and unable to go recently. It has been almost a year since she went last, which pains her greatly. LOL!!

  5. Well thank god for that then, because I was starting to think that all those banana milkshakes from Mcdo's couldn't possibly be healthy for me! I'll be feeling less guilt ridden from now on, while I unashamedly slurp down those extra large bananalicious shakes!

  13. I just saw the program and I had heard of the case that it was based on. It is just tragic that such a thing is known to have happened and could happen. You find asking yourself how it's possible that people, doctors of all people, could make such a horrendeous error. During the program I kept hoping the black couple would end up with the baby, after all it was their embroyo and they were supposed to be the baby's parents. I would fight to the end to get my baby back and if the court ordered for it to stay with the woman who carried him then I would appeal until that decision was changed. It would be easy to say it's not the couple's fault and the baby should stay with the person that carried him/her. Ofcourse, there is a lot of emotion and feelings involved in carrying someone with you for 9 months. However the fact remains that at the end of the day that baby is not yours. You've carried someone else's child. In the real case, the court decided that the baby's mother would be the white woman and the baby's father would be the black man. That is just tragic. People say technology has evolved, but at what cost?
  14. order bixi, saaxib, hadaan keenaa sadax oo aan weligood 'Oprah' maqlin. oo mid ee tahay dhegool, mabahadasho. hehehe dhagool kumalaho...why stop there? While you're at it, mid indhaha la' xataa ma ka dhigdid But seriously, stop using marriage as an excuse to eat bariis, if you want food just ask for it :rolleyes:
  15. ^^ Closer to the dad you say? Have you heard of the Elektra complex by chance, because you fit the bill (just kiddin luv) Parents love... I am close to my mom, I get on better with my mom's family than my dad's. This is simply because my parents seperated when I was little, I haven't got a real bond with my dad or his side of the family. It's not something I ponder on either, it just so happens that my mom was there for me from day 1.

    ^^ no no darling....I'm definitly talking about platforms... Though mine look more like this

    ^^^ platforms are too cute girl, they're a killer to walk on, if you don't have arthritis yet, it will sure speed up the process but they are just too CUTE. I bought a pair recently and I am definitly in a summer mood. I don't wear them or anything, I just stare at them.
  18. ^ waxba kuu dhiman ...basuuka kumalaho Tuujiye sawirkiisa markaan fiiriyo markasta waxaa i qabaneyso inaan daamankaas kuuskuusan qanjaruufo kala daalo, aan maroojiyo iyo dacasna ku dhufto ila ee gaduud noqdaan eena bararka intuu ka bato ee dhulka xaaqaan ayaka soo laadlaado.....but that's just an impulse I always know to surpress and just gnash my teeth at the avatar instead. Oh it's not you Tuuj, it's your avatar, I have got nothing against you, don't think it's personal or something
  19. war anaka wax aragnay, ma OG girl baa af-soomaali nagu baratay?? Heersare baa gaartay, though it took me two hours to read what you wrote But man, nominations are flying about, I better prepare my list and home made paper mache awards ...I'll be back
  20. Fariid...hmm, what does that name suggest to me. Usually people who are called fariids are maskiin sayflayaal if you know what I mean. A calm and goody two shoes exterior but on the inside something is cooking. Ofcourse I could be wrong! To me, you seem like a genuine sort of guy, always trying to put in your two cents everywhere, never saying a word out of place...most people would call it boring, but in your case...you're simply a Fariid. Bless!
  21. sweeter than your tea (phew breathes out)...Wow arn't you the early bird, thursday's passed already hun I already took it to the printers, and after hassling some good natured somali elders, I got what I was after. Thanks for replying and sharing your two cents though To the rest, THANKS A BUNCH! Now I know not to count on you for when I need help! slams door shut on way out
  22. ^^^ OUCH...I think the guy would rather spend some time in Guantanomo than lose his "assests" However, it's very clever of you ( Nin Yaaban) to post this up so everyone can go and condemn this woman. Yet another way of getting a stab at, I believe you call it, xalimoos. Eventhough this might seem like a ruthless way to get back at a estranged husband, still I don't think it was your sole intention to share a bit of "news" with us, was it?
  23. I'm sorry, but I still can't get over the inter milan and ac milan game. Up until now I had only heard about football hooliganism and fans disrupting games, but I've never seen anything like that. Absolutely classis to watch that was! And the poor goalkeeper getting hit like that, while trying to clear away the firebottles...it's just convinced me that Italians are nutters....total barbarians! P.S. North, about wearing that shirt....somehow I don't think red is your colour (just kiddin)
