<p>A Woman's Tears</p><p>" Why are you crying?", he asked his Mom. </p><p>" Because I'm a woman", she told him. </p><p>" I don't understand," he said. </p><p>His Mom just hugged him and said," And you never will." ... </p><p>Later the little boy asked his father, " Why does mother seem to cry for no reason?"</p><p>"All women cry for no reason." was all his Dad could say... </p><p>The little boy grew up and became a man, still wondering why women cry... </p><p>Finally he put in a call to God; when God got on the phone, the man said, " God, why do women cry so easily?"</p><p>God said... " When I made woman she had to be special. I made her shoulders strong enough to carry the weight of the world; yet gentle enough to give comfort... </p><p>I gave her an inner strength to endure childbirth and the rejection that many times comes from her children... </p><p>I gave her a hardness that allows her to keep going when everyone else gives up and take care of her family through fatigue and sickness without complaining... </p><p>I gave her the sensitivity to love her children under any and all circumstances, even when her child has hurt them very badly.... </p><p>I gave her strength to carry her husband through his faults and fashioned her from his rib to protect his heart. </p><p>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.</p><p>I gave her a tear to shed. It's hers exclusively to use whenever it is needed. It's her only weakness... </p><p>It's a tear for mankind..."</p><p><br/> 中文：</p><p> “你为什么哭呀？”他问他的妈妈。 </p><p> “因为我是个女人。”她告诉他。 </p><p> “我不明白。”他说。 </p><p> 他的妈妈只是搂紧了他说，“你永远也不会明白。”…… </p><p> 后来这个小孩问他的父亲，“为什么母亲无缘无故地哭？”“所有女人都会无缘无故地哭。”他的父亲只能这样说…… </p><p> 小男孩长成了大男人，依然没有弄明白女人为什么哭…… </p><p> 最后他给上帝拨了个电话。当上帝接到电话时，这位长大成人的男子问，“上帝，为什么女人那么容易哭？”上帝说……“当我创造女人时她必须是特殊的。我让她的肩膀坚强得足以承担这个世界的重量，但又足够温柔地给人慰藉…… </p><p> 我给她内在的力量以承受分娩的剧痛，去忍受孩子们一次又一次的厌弃…… </p><p> 我给她坚韧，使她在人人都放弃时能独自坚持下去，不顾自身的疲惫和病痛毫无怨言地照料家人…… </p><p> 我给她敏感的心，去毫无条件毫无保留地爱她的儿女，即使他们深深伤害过她…… </p><p> 我给她力量让她帮助丈夫克服他的过失，我用他的一根肋骨造出了她来保护他的心。 </p><p> 我给她智慧让她明白，好丈夫永不伤害妻子，但有时会考验她的力量，考验她坚决站在他身旁的决心。 </p><p> 我给她眼泪，这眼泪只属于她，需要时便会流下，这是她惟一的弱点…… </p><p> 这是为人类而流下的泪水……” <br/> <br/></p> |
