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 had
fallen into water, and he needed the it 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 Beyonce
Knowles. "Is this your wife?" the Lord asked.
"Yes," cried the woodcutter. The Lord was furious.
"You lied! That is a white lie!
The woodcutter fell to his knees and cried, "Oh,
forgive me Lord. It is a misunderstanding. You see, if
I had said 'no' to Beyonce Knowles, You would have
come up with Halle Berry . 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 Beyonce Knowles."
The moral of this good and inspiring story is: Whenever a man lies, it is for a good and honorable reason, and for the benefit of others.. MOSTLY his wife or girlfriend......
