A lawyer was traveling in his Mercedes SLK500 when he saw two men along the roadside eating grass.
Disturbed, he ordered his driver to stop and he got out to investigate the situation.
"Why are you eating grass ?"
"We don't have any money for food ", the poor man replied. " We have to eat grass."
Shocked, the lawyer said, " Well, then, you can come to my house and I'll feed you".
"But sir, I have a wife and two children with me. They are over there, under that tree."
"Bring them along ", the lawyer said.
Turning to the other poor man, he said, "You can come with us too".
The second man said, " But sir, I also have a wife, and six children, with me ".
"Bring them all ", the lawyer answered.
They all jammed into the Merc, and once underway one of the poor fellows turned to the lawyer and said, " Sir, you are too kind. Thank you for taking all of us with you ".
Genuinely touched, the lawyer replied,
"Glad to do it. You'll really love my place. The grass is almost a foot high ". |
