"Women Of Strength"
Posted by: bigguyhereagain <bigguyhereagain@...>
Women have strengths that amaze.
yet they hold faith, happiness, love and joy.
They smile when they want to scream.
They sing when they want to cry.
They are pink ladies in hospitals, they bring food to shut ins.
They are senators, educators, childcare workers, executives, attorneys,
truck drivers, pilots, stay at home moms and your neighbors.
They write to the "powers that be" for things that make for a better life.
They don't take "no" for an answer when they believe 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 tell people that need to be told to straighten up their act.
They lend a shoulder to cry on, an ear to listen
and a voice to make suggestions.
They have sorrow at the loss of a family member,
yet they are strong when they think there is no strength left.
They can round up energy, even when they are tired.
They can stay up a little longer to talk to someone that needs a friend.
They give compassion and ideals.
They give moral support to their family and friends.
They weep with joy when their children excel,
and cheer when loved ones get awards.
They want to touch you in a way that
will make you share your goodness with others.
the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair
... true beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul.
that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides.
The heart of a woman is what makes the world spin!

If I knew it would be the last time that I'd see you fall asleep, I
would tuck you in more tightly and pray the Lord, your soul to keep,
If I knew it would be the last time that I see you walk out the door,
I would give you a hug and kiss and call you back for one more.
If I knew it would be the last time I'd hear your voice lifted up
in praise, I would video tape each action and word, so I could play
them back day after day.
If I knew it would be the last time, I could spare an extra minute
or two to stop and say "I love you," instead of assuming that you
KNOW I do.
If I knew it would be the last time I would be there to share your
day, well I'm sure you'll have so many more, so I can let just this
one slip away. For surely there's always tomorrow to make up for an
oversight, and we always get a second chance to make everything right.
There will always be another day to say our "I love you's", And
certainly there's another chance to say our "Anything I can do's?"
But just in case I might be wrong, and today is all I get, I'd like
to say how much I love you and I hope we never forget, Tomorrow is
not promised to anyone, young or old alike, And today may be the
last chance you get to hold your loved one tight..
So if you're waiting for tomorrow, why not do it today? For if
tomorrow never comes, you'll surely regret the day, That you didn't
take that extra time for a smile, a hug, or a kiss and you were too
busy to grant someone, what turned out to be their one last wish.
So hold your loved ones close today, whisper in their ear, Tell them
how much you love them and that you'll always hold them dear, Take
time to say "I'm sorry," "please forgive me," "thank you" or "it's
okay".
And if tomorrow never comes, you'll have no regrets about today.
