To All The Beautiful Sikh Women...

"Why are you crying?" a young naujawan asked his mom.

"Because I'm a woman" she told him.

"I don't understand," he said.

His mom just hugged him and said,

"And you never will"..........

Later the little boy asked his daddy,

"Why does mother seem to cry for no reason?"

"All women cry for no reason" was all his dad could say........

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

cry.

Finally he put in a call to WAHEGURU JI;

when He got on the phone, the man asked

"O WAHEGURU JI, why do women cry so easily?"

WAHEGURU said.......

"When I made women she had to be special. I made her shoulders

strong enough to carry the weight of the world; yet, gentle enough

to give comfort....

I gave her an inner strength to endure childbirth and the

rejection that many times comes from her children......

I gave her a hardness that allows her to keep going when everyone

gives up and take care of her family through sickness and fatigue

without complaining......

I gave her the sensitivity to love her children under any and all

circumstances, even when her child has hurt them very

badly.......

This same sensitivity helps her make a child's boo-boo feel better

and shares in their teenagers anxieties and fears.......

I gave her strength to carry her husband through his faults and

fashioned her to protect his heart.

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.

I also gave her a tear to shed, It's hers exclusively to use

whenever it is needed.

It's not her weakness, it is her strength....

It's a tear for mankind........."

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.

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 and the beauty of a

woman, with passing years, only grows!

Womanhood is the strength of the Panth. She bears our future

generations. She nurtures them because she spends more time with

the young. She can help Sikhi to flourish or she can bring about

its demise. Sikhi is the future for mankind and 'she' is its most

important tool for the future. Nanak said so over 500 years ago.

Let us now practice giving women their rightful place in Sikhi.

Power to Sikh Womanhood into the next millenium.
