Tears of a Woman


~ Tears of a Woman ~ 

"Mom Why are you crying?"
"Why are you crying?" he asked his mom.
"Because I'm a woman" she told him.
"I don't understand," he said.
His mom just hugged him and said, "and you never
will"..........
Later the little boy asked his father, "Why does
mother seem to cry for no reason?"
"All women cry for no reason," was all
his dad could say........
The little boy grew up and became a man,
still wondering why women cry...
Finally he put in a call to GOD; when GOD got on the
phone the man said, "GOD, why do women cry so
easily?"
GOD said.......
When I made women she had to be special. I made her
shoulders strong enough to carry the weight of the
world; yet, gentle enough to give comfort....
I gave her an inner strength to endure childbirth and
the rejection that many times comes from her
children......
I gave her a hardness that allows her to keep going
when everyone else gives up and take care of her
family through sickness and fatigue without
complaining......
I gave her the sensitivity to love her children under
any and all circumstances, even when her child has
hurt them very badly...
This same sensitivity helps her to make a child's
boo-boo feel better and shares in their teenagers
anxieties and fears.......
I gave her strength to carry her husband through his
faults and fashioned her from his rib to protect his
heart.
I gave her wisdom to know that a good husband never
hurts his wife, but sometimes tests her strengths and
her resolve to stand beside him unfalteringly.
I gave her a tear to shed, It's hers exclusively to
use whenever it is needed. It's her only
weakness....It's a tear for mankind.......

媽媽的眼淚




媽媽的眼淚

媽媽的眼裡是喜悅的淚 ――

當你出生後,第一次把你擁在懷裡

當你牙牙學語,第一次叫聲媽媽

當你舉起小腳丫,邁出人生的第一步

當你揹起小書包,第一天走進學校……



媽媽的眼裡是憂愁的淚 ――

當你初生時,每晚嚎啕大哭

當你無法通過耳窩聽覺測試

當你生病發高燒時

當你不斷地哭鬧,我們不知原因

當專家說你有發展上的障礙……



媽媽的眼裡是欣慰的淚 ――

當你第一次站在台上,滿有信心地獨唱

當妹妹知道自己做錯,親吻哥哥

當你們倆一起玩,快樂地笑著、唱著

當看見你們有一點點的進步……



寶貝,你們是媽媽眼淚的泉源

但願媽媽的淚能灌溉寶寶

讓寶寶茁壯地成長





寫給我的兩個特別的孩子――

多希望有一天你們能看得懂





你們的媽媽
