Man & Woman

Man was created first, and  God then took the gentleness of the moon,the softness of the down, the beauty of the flowers, and the chatter of the jay, and combining these things,made woman.

And man was so happy. But after a while he went to God and said " She is a beautiful creature. I really appreciate her. But she talks without rest and she has become the bane of my life. Take her back" Then after two months the man again visited God. "I am very sad," he said. " Please return the woman to me." But after a while he came again and said, Please take her back" This time God said, " No, you have to keep her! Poor man! he could n't live with her,but neither could he live without her.

No man can come without woman, and no woman can come without man. Man is guided more by reason and woman more by feeling.

Each should strive for an inner balance of both reason and feeling,and so become a "whole" personality, a perfected human being.

Expression V/S Intuition

Two husbands heard the news that their wives had drowned. One was showing great grief and the other was not saying anything; but the one who showed sorrow outwardly felt less love for his wife than did the husband who didn't reveal by his facial expression any pain at all.

Some people have cultivated the ability to hide their true feelings because they  don't want to expose themselves to others.

So at times expression is superfluous and intuition matters.
