Why Women Lie
One day, while a seamstress was sewing while sitting close to a river,
her thimble fell into the river. When she cried out, the Lord appeared
and asked, "Why are you crying?" The seamstress replied that her thimble
had fallen into the water, and she needed the thimble to make her
living. The Lord went down into the water and reappeared with a golden
thimble. "Is this your thimble?" the Lord asked. The seamstress replied,
"No." The Lord again went down and came up with a silver thimble. "Is
this your thimble?" the Lord asked. Again, the seamstress replied, "No."
The Lord went down again and came up with a wooden thimble. "Is this
your thimble?" the Lord asked. The seamstress replied, "Yes." The Lord
was pleased with the woman's honesty and gave her all three thimbles to
keep, and the seamstress went home happy.
Some time later, the seamstress was walking with her husband along the
riverbank, and her husband fell into the river. When she cried out, The
Lord again appeared and asked her, "Why are you crying?" "Oh Lord, my
husband has fallen into the water!" The Lord went down into the water
and came up with Mel Gibson. "Is this your husband?" the Lord asked.
"Yes," cried the seamstress. The Lord was furious. "You lied! That is an
untruth!"
The seamstress replied, "Oh, forgive me, my Lord. It is a
misunderstanding. You see, if I had said 'no' to Mel Gibson, you would
have come up with Tom Cruise. T hen if I said 'no' to him, you would
have come up with my husband. Had I then said 'yes,' you would have
given me all three! Lord, I am a poor woman and am not able to take care
of all three husbands, so THAT'S why I said yes to Mel Gibson." The seamstress replied, "Oh, forgive me, my Lord. It is a
misunderstanding. You see, if I had said 'no' to Mel Gibson, you would
have come up with Tom Cruise. T hen if I said 'no' to him, you would
have come up with my husband. Had I then said 'yes,' you would have
given me all three! Lord, I am a poor woman and am not able to take care
of all three husbands, so THAT'S why I said yes to Mel Gibson."
The
moral of this story is: Whenever a woman lies, it is for a good and
honorable reason, or for the benefit of others. That's our story, and
we're sticking to it!
