HOW TO STAY MARRIED!
A man and woman had been married for more than 60 years. They had
shared everything. They had talked about everything. They had kept
no
secrets from each other except that the little old woman had a
shoe
box in the top of her closet that she had cautioned her husband
never to
open or ask her about.
For all of these years, he had never thought about the box, but
one
day the little old woman got very sick and the doctor said she
would
not recover.
In trying to sort out their affairs, the little old man took down
the
shoe box and took it to his wife's bedside.
She agreed that it was time that he should know what was in the
box.
When he opened it, he found two crocheted dolls and a stack of
money
totaling $95,000.
He asked her about the contents. "When we were to be married," she
said, "my grandmother told me the secret of a happy marriage was
to
never argue. She told me that if I ever got angry with you, I
should
just keep quiet and crochet a doll."
The little old man was so moved; he had to fight back tears. Only
two
precious dolls were in the box. She had only been angry with him
two
times in all those years of living and loving. He almost burst
with
happiness.
"But what about all of this money? Where did it come from?"
Oh," she said, "that's the money I made from selling the dolls."
For all men with a good sence of humor ..
Women will love this..
A Prayer.......
Dear Lord, I pray for Wisdom to understand my man; Love to forgive
him;And Patience for his moods; Because Lord, if I pray for
Strength,
I'll beat him to death. And I don't know how to crochet. Amen!
