The One Flaw in Women

 

Women have strengths that amaze 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 for 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 email 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 this:  They forget their worth and how remarkable they truly are!
