FOR ALL MY SISTERS OUT THERE

The One Flaw In Women

  • By the time the Lord made woman,
  • He was into his sixth day of 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 on her?
  • She has to be completely washable, but 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
  • 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 TINY FLAW IN WOMEN,
  • IT IS THAT THEY FORGET THEIR WORTH.
