lovedThe Woman
When God created woman, he was working late on the 6th day. An angel came by and said, “Why spend so much time on that one?”
And the Lord answered: “Have you seen all the specifications I have to meet to shape her? She must be washable but not made of plastic, have more than 200 moving parts which all must be replaceable. She must function on all kinds of food. She must be able to embrace several kids at the same time, give a hug that can heal anything from a bruised knee to a broken heart. And she must do all these with only two hands.
The angel was impressed. “Just two hands…impossible! And this is the standard model? Too much work for one day. Wait until tomorrow… then complete her.”
“I will not”, said the Lord. “I am so close to completing this creation which will be the favorite of my heart. She cures herself when sick and she can work 18 hours a day.”
The angel came nearer and touched the woman. “But you have made her so soft, Lord”.
“She is soft”, said the Lord. “But I also made her strong. You can’t imagine what she can endure and overcome,”
“Can she think?” the angel asked.
The Lord answered, “Not only can she think, she can reason and negotiate.”
The angel touched the woman’s cheek. “Lord, it seems this creation is leaking. You have put too many burdens on her.”
“She is not leaking…it’s a tear”, the Lord corrected the angel.
“What is it for?” asked the angel.
And the Lord said, “Tears are her way of expressing her grief, her doubts, her love, her joy, her loneliness, her suffering and her pride.”
This made a big impression on the angel. “Lord, you are a genius. You thought of everything. The woman is indeed marvelous!”
