The Third Follows as a Matter of Course

In order to be happy, a woman needs only a good digestion, a satisfactory complexion, and a lover. The first requirement being met, the second is not difficult to obtain, and the third follows as a matter of course. (link)

I am *definitely* writing a story with that as the title someday.

And, sometime, when I have time, I may sit down and explain how it is that this instruction boils down to love thyself. For it is from self-love, contentment, and satisfaction that inevitably follows a good digestion, and thus, a satisfactory complexion.

And the third follows as a matter of course.
