AN INVITATION
A woman came out of her house and saw
three old men sitting in her front yard. She
couldn't recognize them. She said
   "I don't think I know you, but you must be

   hungry.
   Please come in and have something to eat."
"Is the man of the house home?", they asked.
"No", she said. "He's out."
"Then, we cannot come in", they replied.
In the evening when her husband came home,
she told him what had happened.
" Let’s invite them in! " he said.
They went out and invited the men in.
"We don’ t go into a house together," they
replied.
"Why is that?" she wanted to know.
One of the old men explained:
" His name is Wealth, "


Then, pointing to another one,
 " He is Success,
and

I am Love.“



Then he added,
"Now go in and discuss among yourselves.
Which one of us do you want in your home?"
They went in. The husband was overjoyed.
"How nice!!", he said.
"Since that is the case, let us invite Wealth.
Let him come and fill our home with wealth!"
His wife disagreed. "My dear, why don't we
invite Success?, we need that more than
Anything. "
Their daughter was listening to them and she
jumped in with her own suggestion:
"Would it not be better to invite Love?
Our home will then be filled with love!
Isn’t it the meaning of life? "
Ashamed of their greed, they told their daughter to
go out and invite Love to be their guest.
She went out and asked the old men,
"Which one of you is Love? Please come in and be
our guest."
Love got up and started walking towards the house.
The other two also got up and followed him.
Surprised, the lady asked Wealth and Success:
"Why are you coming in? We have just invited
  Love"
The old men replied together:
"If you had invited Wealth or Success, the
other two of us would've stayed out.
but since you invited Love, wherever he
  goes,
we go with him. Because
Wherever there is Love, there is also Wealth
                 and Success!!!
The old men replied together:
"If you had invited Wealth or Success, the
other two of us would've stayed out.
but since you invited Love, wherever he
  goes,
we go with him. Because
Wherever there is Love, there is also Wealth
                 and Success!!!
