Two old friends, who hadn’t seen each other in many years, finally had the chance to catch up. They were eager to share stories about their families and reminisce on old times. As their conversation flowed, one friend couldn’t help but ask about the other friend’s children.
Curiosity filled the air as she inquired, “So, what’s the latest with your son?”
The mother let out a long sigh and responded, “Oh, my poor son! His marriage has taken an unfortunate turn. He ended up with a wife who doesn’t lift a finger around the house. She spends her entire day in bed, either sleeping or engrossed in her books. Can you believe it? He even brings her breakfast in bed!”
The friend shook her head in disbelief and offered her sympathies, saying, “That’s truly terrible. And what about your daughter? How is her married life?”
A smile appeared on the mother’s face as she happily replied, “Ah, my daughter is incredibly lucky! She married an absolute angel of a man. He takes care of everything around the house. Every single morning, he dutifully brings her breakfast in bed. She can sleep as long as she wants and simply relax all day. It’s like a dream!”
This amusing tale reminds us that life often surprises us with unexpected twists and turns. Things don’t always go as anticipated. But through laughter and a lighthearted perspective, we can find joy even in the most unlikely situations.
