Matshona DhliwayoBe calm when your wife yells at you, calmer when she chastens you, but be terrified when she ignores you.
About This Quote
To be calm when your wife yells at you is a sign of a good husband. If a husband can be calm when his wife yells at him, he has a firm self-confidence. He knows that she will not harm his well-being. So, he can be always calm and equanimous under any circumstance.
But being calm when she chastens you is a sign that the husband has real wisdom and insight into life. Being calm when she ignores you shows that he has learned to accept her as she truly is, without grudge, without malice, without envy or jealousy, but with deep affection. To be terrified when she ignores you is an indication of a man who has successfully survived and overcome many trials and tribulations and who has come to peace with himself and his own innermost feelings.
