Why mothers cry!

(author unknown to me)

 
 Why are you crying?" he asked his mom.
 "Because I'm a mother" she told him
 "I don't understand," he said
 His mom just hugged him and said, "You never will"
 
 Later the little boy asked his father why Mother seemed to cry
 for no  reason.
 "All mothers cry for no reason." was all his dad could say.

  The little boy grew up and became a man, still wondering why mothers
 cry.  So he finally put in a call to God and when God got on the phone
 the man said "God, why do mothers cry so easily?"
  God said, "You see son, when I made mothers they had to be
 special. I made their shoulders strong enough to carry the weight of the
 world, yet gentle enough to give comfort.  I gave them an inner strength
 to endure childbirth and the rejection that many times come from
 their children.  "I gave them a hardiness that allows them to keep
 going when everyone else gives up, and to
 take care of their families through sickness and  fatigue without
  complaining. I gave them the sensitivity to love their children
 under all circumstances, even when their child has hurt them very
 badly. This same sensitivity helps them to make a child's boo-boo feel
 better and helps them share a teenager's anxieties and fears.  I gave
 them a tear to shed.  It's theirs exclusively to use whenever it is
 needed. It's their only weakness.  It's a tear for mankind".
