A Man Sorts Through His Dying Wife’s Belongings. He Never Expected To Find This…

“You can tell me anything.” Perhaps you’ve heard these words from a loved one recently.

A healthy relationship depends upon trust and honesty. A couple in love should feel free to disclose anything to their partner, without the fear of judgement.

But everyone still has at least one secret, right?

In this joke posted by Sarcastic Mark, a concerned husband discovers an interesting surprise.

Read the following joke below.

A man and woman had been married for more than 60 years. They had shared everything. They talked about everything. They didn’t keep any 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 totaling $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 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 dolls, 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.

Didn’t see that coming!

Even in the most loving relationships, couples will argue. It’s just human nature. So, how do you make a relationship last a lifetime?

Take a lesson from this wise wife and channel your frustrations into something productive. And who knows, maybe you’ll make a killing doing so!
