The angel didn\u2019t like what he saw:<br \/>\n\u201cYou have been working too many extra hours, You no longer know what You are doing,\u201d the angel said.<br \/>\n\u201cLook at that! Special kisses to cure any disease, six pairs of hands for cooking, washing, ironing, caressing, holding, cleaning \u2014 that won\u2019t work!\u201d<br \/>\n\u201cThe problem isn\u2019t the hands,\u201d God answered.<br \/>\n\u201cThe problem is the three pairs of eyes I had to put on it: one pair to allow her to see her son through closed doors and protect him from open windows.<br \/>\nAnother pair to display severity when firm upbringing becomes necessary. And the third pair to constantly keep demonstrating love and tenderness in spite of all the work she will have!\u201d<br \/>\nThe angel examined the mother pattern more carefully: \u201cAnd this, what is it?\u201d<br \/>\n\u201cA self-curing device. She won\u2019t have time to get sick; she\u2019ll have to take care of her husband, of her children, of her house.\u201d<br \/>\n\u201cI think you\u2019d better rest a little,\u201d said the angel.<br \/>\n\u201cAnd get back to the normal pattern, with two arms, a pair of eyes, etc.\u201d<br \/>\nGod agreed with the angel. After he rested, he transformed the mother in a normal woman.<br \/>\nHe, however, warned the angel: \u201cI had to imbue her with such want that she will feel as if she had six arms, three pairs of eyes, a self-curing system. Otherwise she won\u2019t be able to accomplish her task.\u201d<br \/>\nThe angel examined her closely. This time, in his opinion, God had hit it. Suddenly he noticed a flaw: \u201cShe is leaking. I think, God, You have put too much into this pattern again.\u201d<br \/>\n\u201cThat isn\u2019t a leak. It is called tears.\u201d<br \/>\n\u201cWhat is it good for?\u201d<br \/>\n\u201cFor releasing joy, sorrow, disappointment, pain, pride, enthusiasm.\u201d<br \/>\n\u201cYou are a genius,\u201d said the angel. \u201cThat\u2019s exactly what was missing for the pattern to be complete.\u201d<br \/>\nWith a sombre look, God answered: \u201cIt wasn\u2019t I who placed it there. Those tears appeared after I assembled the pieces.\u201d<br \/>\nAll the same, the angel congratulated the Almighty and mothers were created.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>When God created Mothers<\/strong><\/em><br \/>\n<em><strong>Paulo Coelho<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>God sent for his dearest angel and showed him the pattern of a mother.
