                                Laugh 157


    Marry Me

    An elderly widow and widower were dating for about
    five years. The man finally decided to ask her to
    marry. She immediately said "yes".

    The next morning when he awoke, he couldn't
    remember what her answer was! "Was she happy? I
    think so, wait, no, she looked at me funny..."

    After about an hour of trying to remember to no avail,
    he got on the telephone and gave her a call.
    Embarrassed, he admitted that he didn't remember her
    answer to the marriage proposal.

    "Oh", she said, "I'm so glad you called. I remembered
    saying 'yes' to someone, but I couldn't remember who
    it was."


    Reflections

    * Dementia and forgetfulness are not only the
    afflictions of old people. Younger people today also
    are lacking in mindfulness.
    * The mind has to be trained from young in terms
    of mindfulness. We need to care for the brain and
    mind functions with jealthy mental activities and
    hobbies …right from a young age.

Family Business
A very successful businessman had a meeting with his new
son-in-law. "I love my daughter, and now I welcome you
into the family," said the man. "To show you how much
we care for you, I am making you a 50-50 partner in my
business. All you have to do is go to the factory every day
and learn the operations."
The son-in-law interrupted. "I hate factories. I can't stand
the noise." "I see," replied the father-in-law.

"Well then you'll work in the office and take charge of
some of the operations."

"I hate office work," said the son-on-law. "I can't stand
being stuck behind a desk all day."

"Wait a minute," said the father-in-law. "I just made you
a half-owner of a profitable corporation, but you don't
like factories and won't work in a office. What am I going
to do with you?"

"Easy," said the young man. "Buy me out."


Reflections
* Does the younger generation today, starting on their
career tend to be choosy and not willing to struggle and
take up challenges.
* Many today want easy work, lots of freedom and high
wages but are unwilling to ‘toil and sweat’.
