All Honorable MEN
"One day, a woodcutter was cutting a branch of a tree above a
river, when 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 axe to make a living.
The Lord went down into the water and reappeared with a golden axe.
"Is this your axe?" the Lord asked.
The Woodcutter in all honesty 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.
The woodcutter replied with gratitude , "Yes."
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
same riverbank, and his wife accidentally 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 Aishwarya Rai. "Is
this your wife?" the Lord asked..
"Yes," cried the woodcutter.
The Lord was furious. "You lied! That is an untruth!"
The woodcutter replied, "Oh, forgive me, my Lord. It is a case of
mistaken presumption. You see, if I had said 'no' to Aishwarya Rai, you
would have come up with Priyanka Chopra. Then if I said 'no' to her,
you would have come up with my wife . Had I then said 'yes,' you would
have given me all the three. Lord, I am a poor man, and am not able to
take care of all three wives, so THAT'S why I said yes to Aishwarya Rai."
The moral of this story is: Whenever a man lies, it is for a good and
honorable reason, and for the benefit of all others.
"WE ARE ALL THERFORE HONORABLE MEN!!!!!!"
