Here is the version I was sent of almost the identical thoughts except it was turned into a joke. <P>GOD made men and women to compliment each other by<BR>the unique traits we were each given:<P>WOMEN<BR>Women have strengths that amaze men.<BR>They carry children, they carry hardships, they<BR>carry burdens, but they<BR>hold happiness, love and joy.<BR>They smile when they want to scream.<BR>They sing when they want to cry.<BR>They cry when they are happy and laugh when they<BR>are nervous. Women wait<BR>by the phone for a "safe at home call" from a friend<BR>after a snowy drive home.<P>They are child care workers, executives,<BR>attorneys, stay-at-home moms,<BR>biker babes, and your neighbors.<BR>They wear suits, jeans, and they wear uniforms.<BR>They fight for what they believe in.<BR>They stand up for injustice.<BR>They walk and talk the extra mile to get their<BR>children in the right<BR>schools and for getting their family the right<BR>health care. They go to the doctor with a frightened friend.<P>Women are honest, loyal, and forgiving.<BR>They are smart, knowing that knowledge is power.<BR>But they still know how to<BR>use their softer side to make a point.<P>Women want to be the best for their family, their<BR>friends, and themselves.<BR>Their hearts break when a friend dies.<BR>They have sorrow at the loss of a family member,<BR>yet they are strong when<BR>they think there is no strength left.<P>A woman can make a romantic evening unforgettable.<BR>Women come in all sizes, in all colors and shapes.<BR>They live in homes, apartments and cabins.<BR>They drive, fly, walk, run or e-mail you to show<BR>how much they care about you.<P>The heart of a woman is what makes the world spin!<BR>Women do more than just give birth.<BR>They bring joy and hope.<BR>They give compassion and ideals.<BR>They give moral support to their family and<BR>friends. And all they want back<BR>is a hug, a smile and for you to do the same to<BR>people you come in contact with.<P>MEN??<P>Men are good at lifting heavy ****.<BR><p>[This message has been edited by Mrs. Job (edited May 31, 2001).]

Ignore this. I accidentally posted the same message twice. It won't let me delete it. I cheated the system and edited out my second posting, but am left with this blank space here. So I felt, as most writers do, that I must put something on the blank page. <P>Mrs. Job<p>[This message has been edited by Mrs. Job (edited May 31, 2001).]
