By the time the Lord made woman
,

He was into his sixth
day of working overtime.

An angel

appeared and said,

'Why are you spend
ing so much time on this one?'

And the Lord answe
red, 'Have you seen my spec sheet on her?

She has to be compl
etely washable, but not plastic,

have over 200 movab
le parts, all replaceable

and able to run on diet coke and lefto
vers,

have a lap that can hold four child
ren at one time,

have a kiss that can cure anyth
ing from a scraped knee to a broken heart

-and she will do every
thing

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 alrea

dy 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 endur

e or accomplish.'



'

Will she be able to think?', asked the angel.



The Lord repli

ed,

'Not only will she be able to think
,

she will be able to reaso
n and negotiate.'



The angel

then noticed something,

and reach
ing out, touched the woman's cheek.

'

Oops, it looks like you have a leak in this model.

I told you that you were tryin

g to put too much into this one.'



'

That's not a leak,'

the Lord corre
cted,

'
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 sorro
w, her pain, her disappointment, her love,her loneliness, her grief and her pride.'

The angel

was impressed.

'You are a geniu

s, Lord.

You thoug

ht of everything!

Woman
is truly amazing.'



And she is!

Women

have strengths that amaze men.

They bear hards

hips and they carry burdens,

but they hold happi
ness,

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 belie
ve there is a better solution.

They go witho

ut so their family can have.

They go to the docto

r with a frightened friend.

They love uncon

ditionally.

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 griev

e at the loss of a family member,

yet they are stron
g w hen they think there is no strength left.

They know that a hug and a kiss

can heal a broke

n 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 compa

ssion and ideals.

They give moral

support to their family and friends.

Women

have vital things to say and everything to give



HOWEV
ER, IF THERE IS ONE TINY FLAW IN WOMEN,



IT IS THAT THEY FORGE
T THEIR WORTH.
