Today I learnt that a rich man is NOT someone who has everything but is someone who needs the least..

When God created a woman,He was working late on the 6th day.An angel came by and said, ''Why spend so much time on that one?''
And the Lord answered, ''Have you seen all the specifications i had to meet to shape her?''
She must be washable,but not made of plastic, have more than 200 moving parts which all must be replaceable and she must function on all kinds of food,she must be able to embrace several kids at the same time,give a hug that can heal anything from a bruised knee to a broken heart and she must do all these with only two hands.
The angel was impressed, ''Just two hands?...impossible!''
"And this is the standard model!?!"
''Too much work for one day..wait until tomorrow and complete her.''
''I will not.'' said the Lord. ''I am so close to complete this creation,which will be the favourite of my heart. She cures herself when sick and she can work 18hrs a day.''
The angel came nearer and touched the woman.
''But my Lord,you have made her soft.''
''She is soft," said the Lord. ''But I've also made her strong. You can imagine what she can endure and overcome''
''Can she think?'' the angel asked.
The Lord answered, ''Not only can she think,she can also reason and negotiate.''
The angel touches the woman's cheek...
"Lord, it seems this creation is leaking! You have put too much burdens on her.''
''She's not leaking...it's a tear.'' The Lord corrected the angel.
''What is it for?'' asked the angel.
And the Lord said, ''Tears are her way of expressing grief, her doubts, her love, her loneliness, her suffering and her pride.''
This made a very big impression on the angel. ''Lord,you are a genius.You thought of everything.The woman is indeed marvellous!''
Indeed she is!
A woman has strengths that amazes man.She can handle trouble and carry heavy burdens.She holds happiness,love and opinions.She smiles when feeling like screaming.She sighs when she feels like crying,cries when she is happy and laughs when she is afraid.
She fights for what she believes in.Stands up against injustice.She doesn't take 'no' for an answer.She gives herself in so that her family can thrive.She takes her friend to the doctors if she is afraid.Her love is unconditional.She cries when her kids are victorious.She's happy when her friends do well.
She's glad when she hears of a birth or a wedding.Her heart is broken when a next of kin or friend dies.But she finds the strength to get on with life.She knows that a kiss and a hug can heal a broken heart..
But there's only one thing wrong with her...

SHE FORGETS WHAT SHE IS WORTH...

I heard this story today in combine assembly for the farewell to the year 12 leavers. It really impacted me and I searched it up. I hope it inspired you as it has for me!
