Why God Created Woman from the Man's Rib~
It’s amazing how God made man, and so beautiful how he made woman! Why did God create Woman from Man’s rib, when He could have simply created her from dust, as He did Man? This is a story that puts a beautiful touch on the reasoning:
“When I created the heavens and the earth, I spoke them into being. When I created man, I formed him from the dust of the Earth and breathed life into his nostrils. But you, woman, I fashioned after I breathed the breath of life into man because your nostrils are too delicate. I allowed a deep sleep to come over him so I could patiently and perfectly fashion you. Man was put to sleep so that he could not interfere with the creativity. From one bone I fashioned you. I chose the bone that protects man’s life. I chose the rib, which protects his heart and lungs and supports him, as you are meant to do.”
“Around this one bone I shaped you. I modeled you. I created you perfectly and beautifully. Your characteristics are as the rib, strong yet delicate and fragile. You provide protection for the most delicate organ in man, his heart. His heart is the center of his being; his lungs hold the breath of life. The rib cage will allow itself to be broken before it will allow damage to the heart. Support man as the rib cage supports the body.”
“You were not taken from his feet, to be under him, nor were you taken from his head, to be above him. You were taken from his side, to stand beside him and be held close to his side. You are my perfect angel. You are my beautiful little girl. You have grown to be a splendid woman of excellence, and my eyes fill when I see the virtue in your heart. Your eyes: don’t change them. Your lips: how lovely when they part in prayer. Your nose so perfect in form, your hands so gentle to touch. I’ve caressed your face in your deepest sleep; I’ve held your heart close to mine. Of all that lives and breathes, you are the most like me.”
“Adam walked with me in the cool of the day and yet he was lonely. He could not see me or touch me. He could only feel me. So everything I wanted Adam to share and experience with me, I fashioned in you: my holiness, my strength, my purity, my love, my protection and support. You are special because you are the extension of me.”
“Man represents my image, woman - my emotions. Together, you represent the totality of God. So man, treat woman well. Love her, respect her, for she is fragile. In hurting her, you hurt me. What you do to her, you do to me. In crushing her, you only damage your own heart, the heart of your Father and the heart of her Father. Woman, support man. In humility, show him the power of emotion I have given you. In gentle quietness show your strength. In love, show him that you are the rib that protects his inner self.”

GIRL~
When a GIRL is quiet…millions of things are running in her mind. When a GIRL is not arguing…she is thinking deeply. When a GIRL looks at u with eyes full of questions…she is wondering how long you will be around. When a GIRL answers "I'm fine" after a few seconds…she is not at all fine. When a GIRL stares at you…she is wondering why you are lying. When a GIRL lays on your chest…she is wishing for you to be hers forever. When a GIRL wants to see you everyday…she wants to be pampered. When a GIRL says "I love you"…she means it. When a GIRL says "I miss you"…no one in this world can miss you more than that.
Life only comes around once make sure u spend it with the right person. Find a guy…who calls you beautiful instead of hot…who calls you back when you hang up on him…who will stay awake just to watch you sleep. Wait for the guy who…kisses your forehead. Who wants to show you off to the world when you are in your sweats…who holds your hand in front of his friends…who is constantly reminding you of how much he cares about you and how lucky he is to have you…who turns to his friends and says, "That's her!"

The One Flaw in Women~
By the time the Lord made woman, He had been working six days straight. He was very tired. An angel appeared before Him and said, "Lord, why are you spending so much time on this one?" The Lord answered, "Have you seen the spec sheet on her? She has to be water-proof, but not plastic or hard. She must have over 200 movable parts, all replaceable and be able to run on diet Coke and leftovers. She must have a lap that can hold at least four children at a time, a kiss that can cure anything from a scraped knee to a broken heart, and she must be able to talk on the telephone, cook, scold a child and pet the dog all at the same time with only two hands." The angel was astounded. "No way! Only two hands!" "Yes,the Lord said. "And that's just the standard model." "Lord, that is too much work for you. Wait until tomorrow. You can finish up then."
The Lord protested."I am too close to finishing this creation that is so close to my heart. She can already heal herself and work 18 hours a day. I'm just about done." The angel moved in for a closer look and touched the woman. "Lord, you've made her so soft." "Yes, she is soft." the Lord agreed. "But she is also tough! You have no idea what she can do, endure, or accomplish." "Will she be able to think, too?" The angel asked. The Lord replied, "Not only will she be able to think; she will be able to pray, reason, meditate and negotiate." The angel noticed something and reached out to touch the woman's cheek. "Oops! You've put so much in her, she is starting to leak, Lord. I told you, you were putting too much in this one." "That's not a leak, that's a tear." "What's that for?" the angel inquired. The Lord whispered, "Her tears are the way she will express her joy, her sorrow, her pain, her disappointment, her love, her loneliness, her grief and her pride. It is a symbol of her heart." The angel was impressed. "You are a genius, Lord. You've thought of everything. This woman you are making is truly amazing, is she not?"
With all the pride of a brand-new father, the Lord said, "Oh yes she is! Women have strengths that will amaze men." "They bear hardships and carry burdens, but they will, at the same time, hold happiness, love and joy. They will smile when they want to scream. Sing when they want to cry. They cry when they are happy and laugh when they are nervous. They fight for those they love and all that they believe in. They stand up for injustice and remain seated in humility. They will not take no for an answer when they know there is a better way. They will go without so that their family, particularly the children can have what they need. They will go to the doctor with a frightened friend. They will go to court with a wayward husband. They love unconditionally often, asking for and taking little in return. They cry when their children excel and cheer when their friends are rewarded. They are happy to hear about a birth, knowing the difficulties that may lie ahead. They cheer because they will help a friend through it all. They love weddings and might even help make the dress. They can cook and some can even bake. Their hearts break when someone dies yet, they are strong when others may think there is no strength left. They know that a hug and a kiss can heal a broken heart and, they will offer them to anyone who needs one. They come in all sizes, shapes and colors. They can walk, run, fly, drive or e-mail to remind you that they love you. It is the heart of a woman that will keep the world turning and things in order. They have the babies because men could never figure out how to put so much in such a small space. Women bring hope and joy. They bring compassion and ideals. They are the moral support that keeps the family of humanity together.
Women have important things to say and even more important things to do. They ask very little and offer all they have & that's their one flaw. "What flaw?" asked the angel. Sadly, the Lord responded, "They seem to always forget their worth."

Quote of the Day: Woman was taken out of man; not out of his head to top him, nor out of his feet to be trampled underfoot; but out of his side to be equal to him, under his arm to be protected, and near his heart to be loved. -Matthew Henry
