Why Mothers Cry
“Why are you crying?” he asked his mother.
“Because I’m a mother,” she told him.
“I don’t understand.”
His mother just hugged him and said, “You never will!” Later
the little boy asked his father why his mommy seemed to be crying
for no reason.
“All mothers cry for no reason,” was all his father 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?”
“You see, son,” replied God, “when I made mothers, they had
to be special. I made their shoulders strong enough to carry the
weight of the world, yet gently enough to give comfort. I gave them
an inner strength to endure childbirth and the rejection that many
times comes 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.
“And I gave them a tear to shed. It’s theirs exclusively to use
whenever it’s needed. It’s a tear for mankind.” -Author unknown
