MOMS ....
"Why are you crying?" he asked his mom.
Because I'm a mother" she told him.
"I don't understand," he said.
His mom just hugged him and said, "You never will.
" Later the little boy asked his father why Mother seemed to cry for no reason.
"All mothers cry for no reason" was all his dad could say.
The little boy grew up and became a man, still wondering why mothers cry.
So he finally asked God, "God, why do mothers cry so easily?"
God said, "You see son, when I made mothers they had to be special.
I made their shoulders strong enough to carry the weight of the world,
yet gentle enough to give comfort. "I gave them an inner strength to
endure childbirth and the rejection that many times come from their children
"I gave them a hardiness that allows them to keep going when everyone else
gives up, and to take care of their families through sickness and fatigue without
complaining.
"I gave them the sensitivity to love their children under all circumstances,
even when their child has hurt them very badly. This same sensitivity helps
them to make a child's boo-boo feel better and helps them share a teenager's
anxieties and fears.
"I gave them a tear to shed. It's theirs exclusively to use whenever
it is needed. It's their only weakness. It's a tear for mankind.
