A Woman’s Tears
“ Why are you crying?” he asked his Mom. “ 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, the man said, “ God, why do women cry so easily?” God said… “ When I made 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 fatigue and sickness without complaining… I gave her the sensitivity to love her children under any and all circumstances, even when her child has hurt them 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. I gave her a tear to shed, It’s hers exclusively to use whenever it is needed. It’s her only weakness… It’s a tear for mankind…”
