These is more to life 

15/3/2006

 
A Dad came home from work late again, tired and irritated, to find 
his 5-year old son waiting for him at the door. 
Daddy, may I ask you a question? 
"Yeah, sure, what is it?" replied the man. Daddy, how much money do 
you make an hour?" 
"That's none of your business.  What makes you ask such a thing?" 
the man said angrily. 
"I just want to know. Please tell me, how much do you make an hour?" 
pleaded the little boy. "If you must know, I make $20.00 an hour." 
"Oh," the little boy replied, head bowed. 
Looking up, he said, "Daddy, may I borrow $10.00 please?" 
The father was furious. "If the only reason you wanted to know how 
much money make is just so you can borrow some to buy a silly toy or some 
other nonsense, then you march yourself straight to your room and go 
to bed. Think about why you're being so selfish. 
I work long, hard hours everyday and don't have time for such 
childish games." 
The little boy quietly went to his room and shut the door. 
The man sat down and started to get even madder about the little 
boy's questioning. 
How dare he ask such questions only to get some money. 
After an hour or so, the man had calmed down, and started to think 
he may have been a little hard on his son. 
Maybe there was something he really needed to buy with that $10.00 
and he really didn't ask for money very often. 
The man went to the door of the little boy's room and opened the 
door. "Are you asleep son?" he asked. 
"No daddy, I'm awake," replied the boy. 
"I've been thinking, maybe I was too hard on you earlier," said the 
man. "It's been a long day and I took my aggravation out on you. Here's 
that $10.00 you asked for." 
The little boy sat straight up, beaming.  "Oh, thank you daddy" he 
yelled. 
Then, reaching under his pillow, he pulled out some more crumpled 
up bills. The man, seeing that the boy already had money, started to get 
angry again. 
The little boy slowly counted out his money, then looked up at the 
man. "Why did you want more money if you already had some?" the father 
grumbled. "Because I didn't have enough, but now I do," the little boy 
replied. "Daddy, I have $20.00 now. CAN I BUY A HOUR OF YOUR TIME?" 
 ************************************************************* 
Share $20.00(most probably more) worth of time with someone you 
love. Just a short reminderto all of us working so hard for our living. 
However, let us not let time slip through our fingers without having 
spent some "quality time" with those who really matter to us.​
