My Story Upon Others'

I don't usually post stuff that is distributed through emails. This particularly story though needs to be addressed. I will try to make a quite a long story short. Still you need to be patient in order to go through it and get to some important points that I will make at the end.

A seamstress lost her thimble in the river by accident. She asked the Load for help. She didn't accept a gold or silver thimble the Load first gave her. She only wanted to take the leather one which, she admitted, was her. So the Load gave her all three to reward her honesty.

Some years later, the seamstress' asked the Load for help again. This time her husband fell into the river. The Load came up with George Clooney first. And she immediately was to accept as her husband. The Load was furious with her dishonesty. So the seamstress explained that if she said "no" to George Clooney, then Brad Pitt would be presented. When she finally said "yes" to he husband, she would have to take all three. And with her poor health, she couldn't take care of all three. So she got to keep George Clooney only.

The moral of this story is, as summed up at the end of the story: Whenever a woman lies, it's for a good and Honorable reason, and in the best interest of others. That's our story, and we're sticking to it.

All right, here is mine:

If this woman is honorable enough and NOT IN LOVE with the husband, she should have seized the opportunity and run for her life without asking for Load's help. The Load could have come up with the husband the first time around.

If this woman is honorable enough and STILL IN LOVE with the husband, she should try everything possible to have her husband back, even it means she has to take the other two men. Please note the men are given by God, for God's sake! It would probably be fun to keep George Clooney and Brat Pitt around in the house for a change. Most likely it will help her body and mind tremendously if she applies her honor and wisdom well.

My moral is very simple. Under any circumstances, a woman should feel free to lie for any reason that is justified by her own self and has the courage to take the consequence of it. But a woman shouldn't, under any circumstances, lie about her heart to herself -- simply because it's sad and no fun. That's my story, and I'm sticking to it.
