"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." You now have two choices.
