Why Woman Cry

Why Women Cry...

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 prayed to God

who would surely know the answer.
When God responded he asked,

"God, why do women cry so easily?"
God said:

"When I made the woman she had to be to be made 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,

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 lastly,

I gave her a tear to shed.

This is hers and only hers

exclusively to use whenever she needs it.
She needs no reason, no explanation, its hers."
"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."
