Who can find an ideal woman? - She is worth more than pearls!

“Chayil” means many things: strong, good, rich, and talented. She is full of energy and is honest (Metzudas Tzion). Why is the woman praised for being rich? The Torah explains that a rich person is one who is happy with what she has. When a woman can look at all the things Hashem has given her and appreciate them, then she is truly wealthy. A woman who can be like this, is priceless. It is hard to find, and worth more than any pearls! The perfect Jewish wife and mother tries her hardest to help her husband and children learn Torah and do Mitzvos (Chasam Sofer).
