RE: Why Women Cry

[Guest guest]

Why Women Cry...

A little boy asked his mother, " Why are you crying? "

" 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. "

Later the little boy asked his father, " Why does

mother 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. When God got on

the phone, he asked, " God,

why do women cry so easily? "

God said: " When I made the woman she had to be

special. I made her shoulders

strong enough to carry the weight of the world, yet

gentle enough to give

comfort. I gave her an inner strength to endure

childbirth and the rejection

that many times comes from her children. I gave her

a hardness that allows

her to keep going when everyone else gives up, and

take care of her family

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 very badly. I gave her strength to

carry her husband through

his faults and 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. And

finally, I gave her a tear to shed. This is hers

exclusively to use whenever

it is needed. "

" You see my son, " said God, " the beauty of a woman

is not in the clothes she

wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she

combs her hair. The

beauty of a woman must be seen in her eyes, because

that is the doorway to

her heart - the place where love resides. "
