“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 in a call to God,
When God got on the phone, he asked,
'God, why do women cry so easily?'
God said: 'When I made the 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 sickness and
fatigue without complaining, I 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 finally, I gave her a tear to shed,
This is hers exclusively to use
whenever it is needed,'
'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,'
