I saw this and thought it was terrific. Unfortunately, I don't know who wrote it originally, but it expresses pretty well what I think.

Women

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 there is a better solution.

They go without new shoes so their children can have them.
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 new marriage.
Their hearts break when a friend dies.
They have sorrow 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.

Yep. pretty wonderful stuff. And they didn't even mention how really, terrifically, undeniably beautiful you are!!

You ladies are great! Thanks for being you!
