THE VALUE OF WOMEN
And Then He Made 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! That's too
much work for one day. Wait and finish tomorrow."
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 can reason and negotiate
the most complex situations." 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, you 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. Youthought 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 heart breaks
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 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'S THAT THEY FORGET THEIR WORTH.
If you are a woman, I hope this reminds you.
