A little boy asks his mother:
Why do you cry?
Because I am a woman, she answers.
I don't understand, he says.
His mother hugs him and says: And you never will. Later the little boy asks his father: Why does Mommy cry? All women cry for no reason, is all that his father could answer him.
When he became an adult he asked God: God, why do women cry so easily?
And God answered:
When i created woman, she needed to be special. I created her shoulders strong enough to bear the weight of the world and soft enough to be comfortable.
I gave her the strength to give life, the kind that accepts the rejection that often comes from children.
I gave her the strength to allow her to go on when everybody else give up. The kind that takes care of her family, despite illness and fatigue.
I gave her the sensitivity to love her children unconditionally, even when they have hurt her deeply.
I gave her the strength to endure her husband in his faults and to stay at his side without weakening.
And finally, I gave her tears to shed whenever she needs them to be shed.
You see my son, the beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, nor is it in her face, or the in the way she does her hair.
The beauty of a woman resides in her eyes. It is the door to her hear, the door where LOVE resides.
And it is often through her tears that you see her heart go by.
I saw this photo while browsing Facebook which gives me an instant laugh. It's featured in one of the many applications of Facebook which i find really interesting and funny. So am posting this, which may give you a good laugh!!!!
An Angel says, "Never borrow from the future. If you worry about what may happen tomorrow and it doesn't happen, you have worried in vain. Even if it does happen, you have to worry twice."
1. Pray.
2. Go to bed on time.
3. Get up on time so you can start the day unrushed.
4. Say No to projects that won't fit into your time schedule, or that will compromise your mental health.
5. Delegate tasks to capable others.
6. Simplify and unclutter your life.
7. Less is more.. (Although one is often not enough, two are often too many.)
8. Allow extra time to do things and to get to places.
9. Pace yourself. Spread out big changes and difficult projects over time; don't lump the hard things all together.
10. Take one day at a time.
11. Separate worries from concerns. If a situation is a concern, find out what God would have you do and let go of the anxiety. If you can't do anything about a situation, forget it.
12. Live within your budget; don't use credit cards for ordinary purchases.
13. Have backups; an extra car key in your wallet, an extra house key buried in the garden, extra stamps, etc.
14. K.M.S. (Keep Mouth Shut). This single piece of advice can prevent an enormous amount of trouble.

24. Make friends with Godly people.
25. Keep a folder of favorite scriptures on hand.
26. Remember that the shortest bridge between despair and hope is often a good "Thank you Jesus."
27. Laugh.
28. Laugh some more!
29. Take your work seriously, but not yourself at all.

31. Be kind to unkind people (they probably need it the most).
32. Sit on your ego.
33. Talk less; listen more.
34. Slow down.
35. Remind yourself that you are not the general manager of the universe
