This is mainly for women, but these thoughts can give us all something to think about, to consider as a human being.
The Universe doesn't give you the people you want; but it gives you the people you NEED...to help you, to hurt you, to leave you, to love you and to make you into the person you were meant to be.
One Flaw In Women
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.

Very very nice and that picture brings a lump to the throat. What lovely women -- at every age.
Women hold families together. So often, (as was the case with my Aunt Betty), the family falls apart when the mother passes.
This post brought a tear to my eye.
Don't take no for an answer is sure an understatement. LOL. They are worth their weight I'm gold. :)
Sylvia, what wonderful words ! And what a great visual. I think I am going to save this somewhere. Do you know who wrote it ?
Here's to all women! Happy 2010!
Great post and wonderful images Ms. Slyvia.
Beautiful thoughts and perfect for introspection.
Happy New Year to you
and to your family. All the best.
How we define things and our selves changes with time. This will be a time when how we define what it means to be Human will be like no other time. Balance will finally be put forth into the equation, and what we know now as a woman or man will appear to be a different species.
sad but true! though if I may be so bold, I think I can speak for all of womankind when I say "we're working on it"... LOL!
Very nice post and so true!
That's so right. We do take ourselves for granted, and the men just follow that.
Beautiful!
Wishing you a Happy New year!
Of course, being a man, when I read the first sentence that this was mainly for women, I stopped dead in my tracks and read every word. At 63, I'm still trying to understand you all.
Women rock!
Happy New Year 2010!
I have learned to simply say "Yes dear whatever you want." Just wanted to say HAPPY NEW YEAR and thanks for sharing your world

Magnificent reminder for us all! May all women everywhere remain true to who we are and known our worth in 2010! I've shared Random Reflections for 2009 at Sacred Ruminations today ;-)
Hugs and blessings,
They do confusingly many things and many of them are really contadictory. Maybe you understand them better than me.
This is so lovely, Sylvia. Thank you for sharing it with all of us.
