I really liked this...it reminds me of something someone told me...

From the Talmud, a collection of Jewish writings in the 1st and 2nd century:

Be very careful if you make a woman cry, because God counts her tears. The woman came out of a man’s rib. Not from his feet, to be walked on. Not from his head, to be superior. But from the side, to be equal. Under the arm, to be protected, and next to the heart, to be loved.

Very true indeed! Reminds of Gibran.

Gotta love some of the old Jewish sayings. Had an old boss who would throw one out every once ina while... And the words you quote are so true.
