This is a great
website! I have book marked it, so I can check it out
without having to go to my mailbox.
I haven't known Elaine very long, nor have I met her in person,
but we sent emails daily, and I feel as if I got to know her as
well as if I had been there in person. She was so brave,
and suffered so much, but just kept hanging in there, and always
had a positive attitude. I will miss her a lot, and know
those of you who knew her longer will miss her more.

First off, I must say. It takes a
special person to be loved in such a
special way !
Time....What is time ?...... Is it a secant ?.....Is it a minute
?.....Is it
an hour ?......Is it a day ?...
Is it a week ?......Is it a month ?.....Is it a year ?........Is
it a decade
?.......Is it a century ?........
I really don't know myself. All I do know is, I thank you for
sharing yours
with me.

Why does mommy cry?
Why are you crying?" he 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 father, > > >
"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 GOD; when
GOD got on the phone the man said,
"GOD, why do women cry so easily?"
GOD 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 else gives
up and take care of her family through
sickness and fatigue without complaining......
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 to 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
from his rib 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 gave her a tear to shed, It's hers
exclusively to use whenever it is needed.
It's her only weakness....
It's a tear for mankind...............
