A little boy asked his mother " why are you crying?" " because I am a woman" she told him. "i dont understand" he said, his mum hugged him and said, "and you never will."
later the little boy asked his father, " why do women cry for no reason?"
" all women cry for no reason" was all his father could say.
The little boy grew up and finally became a man, still wondering why women cry.
Finally he put a call in to god: when god got on the phone, the man said, " god, why do women cry so easily?"
god said " when I made women I 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 inner strength to endure childbirth, and the rejection that comes from her children, I gave her a hardness that allows her to keep going when every one else gives up, and to be able to care for her family through sickness and fatigue without complaining, I gave her the sensitivity to love her child under any and all circumstances, even when her child has hurt her very badly.This same sensitivity helps her childs boo boo feel better, and shares in her teenages hopes and fears. I gave her strength to carry her husband through his faults, and fashioned her from his rib to protect his heart, I gave her the wisdom to know that a good husband never hurts his wife, but sometimes tests her resolve to stand by him unfaulteringly. Finally I gave her a tear to shed: this is hers exclusively, to use when ever it is needed. 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 door way to the heart, the place where love resides"
