TO ALL THE WOMEN I LOVE!

My mom read this to me last night, and I thought it was pretty profound. I had not heard it before, although it sounds like a poem that should be shared all the time!

(I hope this is really the author? I did a search on the internet and this is what it came up with, but I am not sure if that is a real name?)

"One flaw in women."

by WhoisTASH

Women have strengths that amase 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 ideas.
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.


I wish I could take the time to upload a picture of each woman that has touched my life. This blog would not have enough storage space! Starting with my own mother, sisters, boss, sisters in the gospel...I am constantly amazed at the caliber of the women God has brought into my life. The strengths, the beauty, the kindness, the desire for righteousness--I am constantly amazed by God's hand shown in/through a righteous woman's life.

To all my friends--may you remember your worth this day!

God loves you! I love you! And your worth is infinite!
