LESSON
Once upon a time….A married couple in their early 60’s
was out celebrating their 35th wedding anniversary in a quiet,
romantic little restaurant. Suddenly, a tiny yet beautiful fairy
appeared on their table and said,
“For being such an exemplary married couple and for
being faithful to each other for all this time,
I will grant you each a wish.”
“Ooh, I want to travel around the world with my darling husband”
said the wife. The fairy moved her magic stick and — abracadabra! —
two tickets for the new QM 2 luxury liner appeared in her hands.
Now it was the husband’s turn. He thought for a moment and said:
” Well this is all very romantic, but an opportunity like this only
occurs once in a lifetime, so, I’m sorry my love, but my wish is
to have a wife 30 years younger than me”.
The wife, and the fairy, were deeply disappointed,
but a wish is a wish… So the fairy made a circle with her
magic stick and -abracadabra! -the husband became 92 years old….
The moral of this story….. Men might be ungrateful idiots….
But fairies are……female.
