Validation

Well this video sure made me SMILE! Laugh out loud actually. I am a woman. I LOVE to be validated. It came with an article on the top 10 things a woman loves and of course, number one was "She wants to be validated".

Each man I've had the honor of being with knows all too well how I articulated my desire for validation (often) and how, more often than not, I got a story which defended what they did or said. Gosh, they just didn't get it. Defending is the antithesis of validation and makes a woman feel unheard and uncared for.

I could write a book on it. It MATTERS so much to me. And that is where I have a shit load of power hidden!

Just the other day, I was saying to my daughter Teresa how it worked that way in the hologram and she corrected me. "It works that way in YOUR hologram. It is YOUR story, your rules, not necessarily anyone else's. And the fact that you find other stories and articles to "validate" your position (no pun intended) is simply what you've written into your script as well."

Darn it. She is right and I so want her to be wrong. I WANT this to be a universal truth that men learn about women so the world could be a much happier place!

So I went home and processed. And this is the very fun video that I found in an email in my inbox the very next day.

Haha...See Teresa?
