As I was reading this I thought about all of the wonderful women in my life. And I also thought about all of the wonderful women I have made friends with this summer. I have seen some amazing things this summer. I am astounded by the love and service I have seen among this group. It is easy to love & serve those that are close to you (family, close friends, etc..) But it takes a little extra effort and strength to do for someone you are just getting to know. I wish that you all could see what I have seen this summer. I love that I have had the opportunity to meet and become friends with such beautiful women this summer.
My life has been touched by each of you. Thank you for letting me draw strength from you!!!
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 to 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 e-mail 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 THAT THEY FORGET THEIR WORTH.
