WHAT IS A WOMAN?

Women come in all sizes, in all colors, and shapes.

They'll drive, fly, walk, run or e-mail you to show how much they care about you.

They smile when they want to scream.

They sing when they want to cry.

They fight for what they believe in.

They stand up for injustice.

They don't take "no" for an answer when they believe there is a better solution.

They go to the doctor with a frightened friend.

They love unconditionally.

They cry when their family excels and cheer when their friends get awards.

They are happy when they hear about a birth or a new marriage.

Their hearts break when a friend dies.

They have sorrow 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.

The heart of  a woman is what makes the world spin.

Beauty of a Woman

The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears,
The figure she carries, or the way she combs her hair.
The beauty of a woman must be seen from her eyes,
Because that is the doorway to her heart,
The place where loves resides.
The beauty of a woman is not in a facial mole,
But true beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul.
It is the caring that she lovingly gives,
The passion that she shows.
The beauty of a woman
With passing years--only grows.
Just when I was getting used to yesterday, along came today.

The best way to get even is to forget....

Words are windows to the heart.

The mighty oak tree was once a little nut that held it's ground.

The nice part about living in a small town: When you don't know what you're doing, someone else always does.

I read this article that said the typical symptoms of stress are eating too much, impulse buying, and driving too fast.  Are they
kidding?  That's my idea of a perfect day!

Each day comes bearing it's own gifts, untie the ribbon!
