Giving Up Wine
I was walking down the street when I was accosted by a particularly dirty
and shabby-looking homeless woman who asked me for a couple of dollars
for dinner.
I took out my wallet, got out ten dollars an d asked, "If I give you
this money, will you buy wine with it instead of dinner?"
"No, I had to stop drinking years ago", the homeless woman told
me.
"Will you use it to go shopping instead of buying food?" I asked.
"No, I don't waste time shopping," the homeless woman said. "I
need to spend all my time trying to stay alive."
"Will you spend this on a beauty salon instead of food?" I asked.
"Are you NUTS!" replied the homeless woman. I havent had my hair
done in 20 years!"
"Well, I said, "I'm not going to give you the money. Instead,
Im going to take you out for dinner with my husband and me tonight."
The homeless Woman was shocked. "Won't your husband be furious with
you for doing that? I know I'm dirty, and I probably smell pretty disgusting."
I said, "That's okay. It's important for him to see what a woman looks
like after she has given up shopping, hair appointments, and wine." |
