A little boy asked his mother why are you crying?
I just am his mother explained.
I don't understand, he said.
His Mom just hugged him and said, And you never will.

有個小男孩問媽媽「媽咪，妳為什麼在哭呢？」
媽媽說：「我就是想哭」
小男孩說：「我不懂」。
媽媽抱抱他，說 ：「是的，你永遠不會懂的。」

Later the little boy asked his father , Why does mother seem to cry for no reason?
All women cry for no reason, was all his dad could say.

之後，小男孩問爸爸：「為什麼媽咪會無緣無故的就在哭呢？」
爸爸答的上來的祇有：「所有的女人都會無緣無故的哭。」

The little boy grew up and became a man, still wondering why women cry.

小男孩長大成了男人，但還是想不通「女人為何而哭？」

Finally he put in a call to God. When God got on the phone, he asked , God , why do women cry so easily?

最後他決定打電話問上帝，他直接在電話中問：「上帝，為什麼女人這麼會哭呢？」

God said, When I made the woman, she had to be special.

上帝回答：「我所塑造女人，必須是非常特別的。」

I made her shoulders strong enough to carry the weight of the world , yet gentle enough to give omfort.

我讓她的肩膀強韌得足以背負這個世界但是又柔軟地可以給人撫慰；

I gave her an inner strength to endure childbirth and the rejection that many times comes from her children.

我讓她有內在的力量，可以承受分娩的痛苦及來自孩子們的排斥抗拒；

I gave her a hardness that allows her to keep going when everyone else gives up , and take care of her family through sickness and fatigue without complaining.

我賜予她堅定的本質，在所有人都放棄時仍堅持著，並無怨無悔地照護她的家庭走過疾病及疲累；

I gave her the sensitivity to love her children under any and all circumstances, even when her child has hurt her very badly.

我賜予她敏銳的心，讓她不論在何種處境下，都會去愛她的孩子，即使孩子曾深深傷害過她；

I gave her strength to carry her husband through his faults and fashioned her from his rib to protect his heart.

我賜予她力量，帶領丈夫度過他犯的過錯，讓她扮演守護丈夫心靈的角色，一如肋骨保護心臟般；

I gave her wisdom to know that a good husband never hurts his wife , but sometimes tests her strengths and her resolve to stand beside him unfalteringly.

我給她智慧，讓她了解一個好丈夫是永遠不會傷害妻子的，但是偶爾又給她一點小小的試鍊,看看她是否能夠堅定不移的與丈夫並肩而立。

And finally, I gave her a tear to shed. This is hers exclusively to use whenever it is needed.

最後，我給了她眼淚，任何時刻可以自由運用的專屬權利。

You see , my son , said God, the beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears , the figure that she carries , or the way she combs her hair . The beauty of a woman must be seen in her eyes , because that is the doorway to her heart the place where love resides.

上帝說：「所以了，我的孩子，女人的美麗不在於她穿的衣裳、外貌體態或是她梳頭髮的模樣；她的美麗是在她的眼睛裡，因為那是通往她心靈的入口--愛的棲息處。」
