A Priest and a Hammer....

There was a crowd around a priest at a nearby church I was visiting. There was something about this priest that drew people around him. Seems everyone hung on his every word. He seemed a bit too holier than thou to me. Well, you know me. There is always a question I have to ask. I asked the priest: Say you are hanging a picture and while hammering on a nail,you hit your finger with the hammer by mistake. Do you say any curse words at all?? The priest said: No, I just bless it! The entire crowd laughed so hard I thought they would die.

I didn't see anything funny about this so it must have been the way he said it.

Perhaps it's the holier than thou attitude the priest had. No one actually believed the priest.

Hi bird: I think that's a beautiful story you are sharing with us. And in general if we could have the ability to face these harsh situations with some sense of humor they won't be so bad or at least it would be easier for us to deal with these situations. ALVARO

Yes, a person's life is a collection of good stories. If more people shared them with each other, everyone would be closer and wiser.
