Gratitude – The best attitude

Credit: Unknown

A wife came home early and found her husband in their bedroom making love to a very attractive young woman.
‘You disrespectful pig!’ she cried. ‘How dare you do this to me – a faithful wife, the mother of your children? I’m leaving you. I want a divorce!’
And Paddy (for it was he) replied, ‘Hang on just a minute, love, so at least I can tell you what happened.’
‘Fine, go ahead,’ she sobbed, ‘but they’ll be the last words you’ll say to me!’
And Paddy began – ‘Well, I was getting into the car to drive home and this young lady here asked me for a lift. She looked so down and out and defenseless that I took pity on her and let her into the car. I noticed that she was very thin, not well dressed and very dirty. She told me that she hadn’t eaten for three days! So, in my compassion, I brought her home and warmed up the enchiladas I made for you last night, the ones you wouldn’t eat because you’re afraid you’ll put on weight.
The poor thing devoured them in moments. Since she needed a good clean-up, I suggested a shower, and while she was doing that, I noticed her clothes were dirty and full of holes so I threw them away.
Then, as she needed clothes, I gave her the designer jeans that you have had for a few years, but don’t use because you say they are too tight. I also gave her the underwear that was your anniversary present, which you don’t use because I don’t have good taste.
I found the sexy blouse my sister gave you for Christmas that you don’t wear just to annoy her, and I also donated those boots you bought at the expensive boutique and don’t use because someone at work has the same pair.’
Here Paddy took a quick breath and continued – ‘She was very grateful for my understanding and help, and as I walked her to the door, she turned to me with tears in her eyes and said, *”Please… Do you have anything else that your wife doesn’t use?’’*
folks, use what belongs to you…🏃🏻🏃🏻🏃🏻🏃🏻🏃🏻👋🏽👋🏽👋🏽
