There's One Flaw In Women

Sharing this to all the women i know. May we know OUR REAL WORTH.


By the time the Lord made woman, he had been working six days straight.
He was very tired. An angel appeared before Him and said, "Lord, why
are you spending so much time on this one?"


The Lord answered, "Have you seen the spec sheet on her? She has to be
water-proof, but not plastic or hard. She must have over 200 movable
parts, all replaceable and be able to run on diet Coke and leftovers.
She must have a lap that can hold at least four children at a time, a kiss
that can cure anything from a scraped knee to a broken heart and, she
must be able to talk on the telephone, cook, scold a child and pet the
dog all at the same time with only two hands."



The angel was astounded. "No way! Only two hands!" "Yes." The Lord
said. "And that's just the standard model."


"Lord, that is too much work for you. Wait until tomorrow. You can
finish up then."


"No!" The Lord protested. "I am too close to finishing this creation
that is so close to my heart. She can already heal herself and work 18
hours a day. I'm just about done."


The angel moved in for a closer look and touched the woman. "Lord,
you've made her so soft."


"Yes, she is soft," the Lord agreed. "But she is also tough! You have
no idea what she can do, endure or accomplish."
"Will she be able to think too?" the angel asked.


The Lord replied, "Not only will she be able to think, she will be able
to pray, reason, mediate, negotiate and meditate."


The angel noticed something and reach out to touch the woman's cheek.
"Oops! You've put so much in her, she starting to leak Lord. I told
you you were putting to much in this one."


"That's not a leak. That's a tear."

"What's that for?" The angel inquired.
The Lord whispered, "Her tears are the way she will express her joy,
her sorrow, her pain, her disappointment, her love, her loneliness, her
grief and her pride. It is a symbol of her heart."


The angel was impressed. "You are a genius Lord. You've thought of
everything. This woman you are making is truly amazing is she not?"


With all the pride of a brand new father the Lord said, "Oh yes she is!
Women have strengths that will amaze men. They bear hardships and
carry burdens, but will, at the same time hold happiness, love and joy.


They will smile when they want to scream. Sing when they want to cry.
They cry when they are happy and laugh when they are nervous.
They fight for those they love and all that they believe in.
They stand up for injustice and remain seated in humility.
They will not take no for an answer when they know there is a better
way. They will go without so that their family, particularly the
children can have what they need. They will go to the doctor with a
frightened friend. They will go to court against a wayward husband.


They love unconditionally, often asking for and taking little in return.
They cry when their children excel and cheer when their friends are
rewarded. They are happy to hear about a birth, knowing the
difficulties that may lie ahead.


They love weddings and might even help make the dress.
Some will cook and even bake. Their hearts break when someone dies
yet, they are strong when others may think there is no strength left.
They know that a hug and a kiss can heal a broken heart and they will
offer them to anyone sho needs one. They come in all sizes, shapes and
colors. They can walk, run, fly, drive or e-mail to remind you that they
love you.


It is the heart of a woman that will keep the world turning and
things in order. They have the babies because men could never figure
out how to put so much in such a small space. Women bring hope and joy.
They birth compassion and ideals. They are the moral support that keeps
the family of humanity together. Woman have important things to say and
even more important things to do. They ask very little and offer all
they have - - that's their one flaw.



"What flaw?" asked the angel.
Sadly the Lord responded,


"They seem to always forget their worth."
