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.”
