I know all of you have seen this a million and one times. But
here is something that touches my heart every time I read it.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~``
Why are you crying, a young boy asked his Mom?
"Because I'm a woman," she told him.
"I don't understand," he said.
His Mom just hugged him and said, "And you never will, but
that's O.K."...
Later the little boy asked his father, "Why does Mom seem to cry
for no
reason?".
"All women cry for no reason," was all his Dad could say.....
The little boy grew up and became a man, still wondering why
women cry.
Finally he put in a call to God and when God got back to him, he
asked
"God, why do women cry so easily?"
GOD answered......
"When I made woman, I decided she had to be special. I made
her shoulders strong enough to carry the weight of the world,
yet, made her arms gentle enough to give comfort... I gave her
the inner
strength to endure childbirth and the rejection
that many times will come even from her own children.
I gave her a hardness that allows her to keep going and take
care of her
family and friends, even when everyone else
gives up, through sickness and fatigue without complaining....
I gave her the sensitivity to love her children under any and
all
circumstances. Even when her child has hurt her badly....
She has the very special power to make a child's boo-boo feel
better
and to quell a teenager's anxieties and fears....
I gave her strength to care for her husband, despite faults and
I fashioned her from his rib to protect his heart....
I gave her wisdom to know that a good husband never hurts his
wife, but
sometimes tests her strengths and her resolve
to stand beside him unfalteringly....
For all of this hard work, I also gave her a tear to shed! ..It
is hers to
use whenever needed and ! it is her only weakness....
When you see her cry, tell her how much you love her, and all
she doesfor
everyone, and even though she may still cry, you will have made
her heart
feel good.
She is special! Please send this to women you know, and those
with mothers, sisters, and special women in their lives.
But, also send this to men so they will understand about what
a wonderful
thing a woman is. Each day is a mountain that must be climbed;
with courage each step gets easier.
