>> THE SHOEBOX
>>
>> A man and woman had been married for more than 60 years.
>> They had shared everything. They had talked about everything.
>> They had kept no secrets from each other except that the little old woman 
>> had a shoe box in the top of her closet that she had cautioned her 
>> husband never to open or ask her about.
>>

>>
>>
>> For all of these years, he had never thought about the box, but one day 
>> the little old woman got very sick and the doctor said she would not 
>> recover.
>>
>> In trying to sort out their affairs, the little old man took Down the 
>> shoe box and took it to his wife's bedside.
>> She agreed that it was time that he should know what was In the box. When 
>> he opened it, he found two crocheted dolls And a stack of money totalling 
>> $95,000.
>>
>> He asked her about the contents.
>>
>> 'When we were to be married,' she said, ' my grandmother told me the 
>> secret of a happy marriage was to never argue. She told me that If I ever 
>> got angry with you, I should just keep quiet, say a prayer and crochet a 
>> doll.'
>>
>> The little old man was so moved; he had to fight back tears. Only two 
>> precious dolls were in the box. She had only been angry with him two 
>> Times in all those years of living and loving. He almost burst with 
>> Happiness.
>>
>> 'Honey,' he said, 'that explains the doll, but what about all of this 
>> money? where did it come from?'
>>
>> 'Oh,' she said, 'that's the money I made from selling the dolls.'

>> The Prayer.......
>> Dear Lord, I pray for Wisdom to understand my man; Love to forgive him; 
>> And Patience for his moods; Because Lord, if I pray for Strength, I'll 
>> beat him to death, Because I don't have time to crochet.
