I saw this on someones blog and liked it so much that I had to share it here....
Two Women
“Once there were two women … Who never knew each other …
One you do not remember … The other you call Mother …
Two different lives … Shaped to make you one …
One became your guiding star … The other became your sun …
The first one gave you life … The second taught you to live it …
The first gave you a need for love … The second was there to give it
One gave you nationality … The other gave you a name …
One gave you talent … The other gave you aim …
One gave you emotion … The other calmed your fears …
One saw your first sweet smile … The other dried your tears …
One sought for you a home … That she could not provide …
The other prayed for a child … And her hope was not denied …
And now you ask me through your tears …
The age-old question unanswered through the years …
Heredity or environment … Which are you a product of?
Neither my darling, neither … Just two different kinds of Love …"
… Author Unknown …
