The One Flaw in Women

THE ONE FLAW IN 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 specs 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.
