THE ONE FLAW IN WOMEN
By the time the Lord made woman, he was working overtime.
An angel appeared and said, "Why are you spending so much time on this one?"
And the Lord answered, "Have you seen my spec sheet, she has
to be completely washable, 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, Lord."
"She is soft," the Lord 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.
The Lord 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," the Lord corrected, "that's a tear!"
"What's the tear for?" the angel asked.
The Lord 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, Lord. 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 this 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.
