One day, while a woodcutter was cutting a branch of a tree above a river, his axe fell into the river.
When he cried out, the Lord appeared and asked, "Why are you crying?"
The woodcutter replied that his axe has fallen into water, and he needed the axe to make his living.
The Lord went down in the water and reappeared with a golden axe.
"Is this your axe?" the Lord asked.
The woodcutter replied, "No."
The Lord again went down and came up with a silver axe."Is this your axe?" the Lord asked.
Again, the woodcutter replied, "No."
The Lord went down again and came up with an iron axe. "Is this your axe?"the Lord asked.
"Yes", he replied.
The Lord was pleased with the man's honesty and gave him all three axes to keep, and the woodcutter went home happy.
Some time later the woodcutter was walking with his wife along the riverbank, and his wife fell into the river. When he cried out, the Lord again appeared and asked him, "Why are you crying?"
"Oh Lord, my wife has fallen into the water!"
The Lord went down into the water and came up with Angelina Jolie.
"Is this your wife?" the Lord asked.
"Yes," cried the woodcutter.
The Lord was furious. "You lied! That is an untruth!"
The woodcutter fell to his knees and cried, "Oh, forgive me, Lord.
It is a misunderstanding. You see, if I had said 'no' to Angelina Jolie, You would have come up with Catherine Zeta-Jones. Then if I also said 'no'to her, you would have come up with my wife. Had I then said 'yes,' you would have given me all three. Lord, I am a poor man, and am not able to take care of all three wives, and I love my wife such that I don't want her to share me with anyone, so THAT'S why I said yes to Angelina Jolie."
The moral of this story is:
Whenever a man lies, it is for a good and honorable reason, and for the benefit of others MOSTLY his wife!
50-50 shared responsibility. Children learn by how their parents react to situations. I know this first hand. My daughter asked me if she could smoke a cigarette. That was 3 years ago I quit that very day. We both learned a something that day.
No one has the right to extinguish life. We all know it is wrong yet it happens all over the world every day. Who will stop it? We as a species need to evolve and use more than 10% of our minds instead of 100 % of hate
I have noticed the more I post in the threads the more spam and phishing emails are in my inbox. Does anyone else notice that connection. I believe that scammers are ghosting the posts. What do you think?
Hexakosioihexekontahexaphobia, or fear of the number "666," is surprisingly common. Related to triskaidekaphobia, or fear of the number 13, this phobia has its origins in both religious belief and superstition. In conjunction with other symptoms, this fear could be representative of magical thinking, possibly even pointing to a delusional disorder.
