Why Women Cry:
"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 ok."...
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 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 does for everyone, and even though she may
still cry, you will have made her heart feel good.
She is special!"
