The good Lord was extremely busy that day. He was into his Sixth day of overtime. When he was working with full concentration, an angel appeared and commented, "You are taking so much care For creating this creature."
"That's true", said the Lord. "Do you want to know the details?”
"What are they?" the angel was curious.
"All her parts should be movable andreplaceable too. She has a lump that disappears when she stands up. I have to endow her with kiss that can cure everything -from a broken leg to a broken heart. Moreover, she Has to have six pairs of hands. She must be able to run on any food available....and...Should have three pairs of eye."
The angel shook his head slowly and said, "A mighty impossible task, I suppose. Six pairs of hands? No way!”
"No, these hands are not a problem for me. It is the three pairs of eyes that the mothers have to have." Lord looked puzzled.
"Oh, so you are creating a standard model of a mother? But three Pairs of eyes? What for?" the angel got interested.
One pair that sees her children through closed doors. Another pair to look at the Children and men say, I understand and I love you without uttering a word. And the third pair to see all secret things without opening them."
"Lord!" requested the angel. "Please go to bed, do not take so much trouble in a single day."
"I cannot," He refused. "I have almost completed the work. I have put the best of my ideas into this model. Now this mother will care heal herself when she is sick. She would be able to feed a family of six members only on half a kilo of cabbage. And she would manage AIN Szy a child's bath, play, study, food and sleepwithout getting irritated." The angel went round the model of the mother very slowly. He touched it and said, "It's too soft."
"But very tough," said the Lord excited. You cannot imagine what this mother can do and endure."
"Can it think?"
"Not only can she think but can reason and compromise too." said the Lord.
The angel was impressed. He went closer to the model and moved his finger across the cheek.
"Oh Lord, her eyes are leaking!"
"How did this happen? It must be a tear. I have not put it there. It is a miracle!" The Lord exclaimed.
"But, what is a tear for, my Lord?" "It is something unique. May be it is for
pain, joy, pride, disappointment, loneliness," the Lord explained.
"What a wonderful creation!"
