The Lawnmower Lesson
A good lesson for all...
When our lawn mower broke and wouldn't run, my wife kept
hinting to me that I should get it fixed. But somehow, I always had
something else to take care of first, the truck, the car, playing golf -
always something more important to me.
Finally, she thought of a clever way to make her point. When I
arrived home one day, I found her seated in the tall grass, busily
snipping away with a tiny pair of sewing scissors. I watched silently for
a short time and then went into the house. I was gone only a minute and,
and when I came out again, I handed her a toothbrush.
I said, "When you finish cutting the grass, you might as well
sweep the driveway."
The doctors say I will walk again, but I will always have a limp.
Moral of the story: Marriage is a relationship in which one
person is always right, and the other is the husband.
