A youthful widow made it a point to visit her husband’s gravesite each week to water the flowers. Consistently, she would turn her back as she departed. After watching her for some time, a young man remarked on her dedication, commenting on the respect she showed her late husband. He found it particularly admirable that she never looked back when leaving. “Indeed, sir,” she replied.
Why did the scarecrow win an award? Because he was outstanding in his field!
In truth, some women marry older men with the intention of inheriting their wealth, as is the case with the woman in this anecdote.
She faithfully visited her husband’s grave each week to pay her respects and tend to the flowers. Yet, she always turned away as she left the burial ground.
A young man, observing this ritual each week, finally approached her to engage in conversation.
“It’s clear that you deeply respect your late husband. I find it truly lovely that you never look back as you leave,” he said.
The woman’s response left him utterly speechless as she fixed her gaze upon him.
“Well, sir, my husband often told me that I had a behind capable of raising the dead. I prefer to avoid any risks.”
I hope you found that humorous!
