The Sharing of Marriage


The Sharing of Marriage...
The old man placed an order for one hamburger, French fries and a drink. 


He unwrapped the plain hamburger and carefully cut it in half, placing one half in front of his wife.

He then carefully counted out the French fries, dividing them into two piles and neatly placed one pile in front of his wife.

He took a sip of the drink, his wife took a sip and then set the cup down between them .



As he began to eat his few bites of hamburger, the people around them were looking over and whispering.

Obviously they were thinking, 'That poor old couple - all they can afford is one meal for the two of them.'

As the man began to eat his fries a young man came to the table and politely offered to buy another meal for the old couple.
The old man said, they were just fine - they were used to sharing everything..
People closer to the table noticed the little old lady hadn't eaten a bite. She sat there watching her husband eat and occasionally taking turns sipping the drink.

Again, the young man came over and begged them to let him buy another meal for them. This time the old woman said 'No, thank you, we are used to sharing everything.'

Finally, as the old man finished and was wiping his face neatly with the napkin, the young man again came over to the little old lady who had yet to eat a single bite of food and asked 'What is it you are waiting for?'

She answered



 


'THE TEETH'.

From Josh&Julie:
"What a nice trip!!!! Its still good to be home. We did alot. From hours of walking door to door, to serving at the Branch helping with the new construction, to sight seeing down south at the lakes and volcanoes, to relaxing at a beach condo overlooking the pacific ocean. We were able to work with missionaries,international voluteers,Branch overseers, and special pioneers serving a small group.

What a previledge to meet brother Mann, first class of gilead graduate and Dora and Dot the sisters featured in a recent Watchtower. They just got accepted to Bethel. One of them who is 94 applied to Bethel 60 years ago and didn't get accepted and now both have to go to entrance school with all the new Bethelites. They are so happy serving Jehovah now even after over 60 years of missionary work."
