Found a Way to Help
This morning I went to the well. I drew the bucket up and was surprised to find it filled with Mountain Dew. Normally I would be upset at the well and ask why and demand that it gives me fresh water. But I sensed a gentler approach would be helpful.
I said, “What a nice morning.”
The well said, “Whatever.”
I said, “Yes, I love the sunlight shimmering the dew on the grass.”
The well said, “I hadn’t noticed that…I guess it’s kind of nice.”
I said, “Did I ever tell you how much I like the sound of your voice?”
The well said, “Really?”
I said, “Yes, it’s my favorite part of the morning.”
The well pulled the bucket back down to the water. The bucket came back up with fresh water. I unattached the bucket.
The wall said, “You have a great day!”
I waved and said, “You too!”
There are many people who would love to have a well that produced Mountain Dew! 🙂
Yea. They would not have seen it as a problem.
Hi Brooks,
Even your responses are the best!
