Mothers

I received this note from my son Jon. Was it because I reprimanded him for coming home late, and nagged him with a barrage of why's and what's? Later, I prayed. Mothers never stop worrying about their children even when they both have gray hair. For mother's, children are babies forever.

Here's Jon that went with his note.

A little boy asked his mother, "Why are you crying?" "Because I'm a woman," she told him. "I don't understand," he said. His mom just hugged him and said. "And you never will."

Later, the little boy asked his father, " Why does mother seem to cry for no reason?" "All women cry for no reason," was all his dad could say.

The little boy grew up to be a man, still wondering why women cry. Finally, he put in a call to god. When God got on the phone, he asked. " God, why do women cry so easily?"

God said: " When I made the woman, she had to be special. I made her shoulder strong enough to carry the weight of the world, yet gentle enough to give comfort. I gave her strength to endure childbirth and the rejection that many times come from her children.

I gave her a hardness that allows her to keep going when everyone else gives up, and to take care of her family trough sickness and fatigue without complaining.

I gave her the sensitivity for her children under any and all circumstances.

I gave her strength to carry her husband trough his faults and fashioned her from his rib to protect his heart.

I gave her wisdom to know that a good husband never hurts his wife, but sometimes tests her strength and her resolve to stand beside him unfalteringly.

And finally, I gave her a tear to shed. This is hers exclusively to use whenever it is needed.

You see, son," said God, " The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the fatigue that she carries, or the way she combs her hair.

The beauty of a woman must be seen in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart - the place where love resides."

I love you!

Jon

Be lated Happy Mother's Day po. Kung may mommy citizen in watty world man.

I just wrote it to remind all here that a mothers love is unmeasurable. Siguro minsan inaakala natin na hindi nila tayo naiintindihan. But it is the other way around. Hindi po natin sila naiintindihan. How hard it is for them to understand us.

So let's hugged them and say the magic word. "I love my mom."
