ONE FLAW In Every 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 FLAW IN WOMEN, IT IS THAT THEY FORGET THEIR WORTH.
