By the time G-D made woman, he was into his sixth day of
working overtime.
An angel appeared and said, "Why are you spending so much time on
this one?" And G-D answered, "Have you seen my spec sheet on
her? She has to be completely washable, but not plastic, have
over 200 movable parts, all replaceable and able to run on diet
coke and leftovers, have a lap that can hold four children at one
time, have a kiss that can cure anything from a scraped knee to a
broken heart -and she will do everything with only two hands."
The angel was astounded at the requirements. "Only two hands!? No
way! And that's just on the standard model? That's too much work
for one day. Wait until tomorrow to finish." But I won't," the
Lord protested. "I am so close to finishing this creation that is
so close to my own heart. She already heals herself when she is
sick AND can work 18 hour days."
The angel moved closer and touched the woman. "But you have made
her so soft, G-D." "She is soft," G-D agreed, "but I have
also made her tough. You have no idea what she can endure or
accomplish."
"Will she be able to think?", asked the angel.
G-D replied, "Not only will she be able to think, she will be
able to reason and negotiate."
The angel then noticed something, and reaching out, touched the
woman's cheek. "Oops, it looks like you have a leak in this
model. I told you that you were trying to put too much into this
one."
"That's not a leak," G-D corrected, "that's a tear!"
"What's the tear for?" the angel asked.
G-D said, "The tear is her way of expressing her joy, her
sorrow, her pain, her disappointment, her love, her loneliness,
her grief and her pride."
The angel was impressed. "You are a genius, G-D. You thought of
everything! Woman is truly amazing."
And she is! Women have strengths that amaze men. They bear
hardships and they carry burdens, but they hold happiness, love
and joy. They smile when they want to scream. They sing when they
want to cry. They cry when they are happy and laugh when they are
nervous. They fight for what they believe in. They stand up to
injustice. They don't take "no" for an answer when they believe
there is a better solution. They go without so their family can
have. They go to the doctor with a frightened friend. They love
unconditionally. They cry when their children excel and cheer
when their friends get awards. They are happy when they hear about
a birth or a wedding. Their hearts break when a friend dies. They
grieve at the loss of a family member, yet they are strong when
they think there is no strength left. They know that a hug and a
kiss can heal a broken heart.
Women come in all shapes, sizes and colors. They'll drive, fly,
walk, run or e-mail you to show how much they care about you. The
heart of a woman is what makes the world keep turning. They bring
joy, hope and love. They have compassion and ideals. They give
moral support to their family and friends. Women have vital things
to say and everything to give.
HOWEVER, IF THERE IS ONE FLAW IN WOMEN, IT IS THAT THEY FORGET
THEIR WORTH.
Learn from yesterday, live for today, hope for tomorrow.
Live for today because yesterdays are over and tomorrows may never come.
