A guy shopping in a supermarket noticed
a little old lady following him around.
a little old lady following him around.
If he stopped, she stopped. Furthermore she kept
staring at him. She finally overtook him at the checkout, turned to him and
said, “I hope I haven’t made you feel ill at ease; it’s just that you look
so much like my late son.” He answered, “That’s okay.” “I
know it’s silly, but if you’d call out “Good bye, Mom” as I leave
the store, it would make me feel so happy.”
She then went through the checkout and as she was on her
way out of the store, the man called out, “Goodbye, Mother.” The
little old lady waved and smiled back at him and said “Thank you”.
Pleased that he had brought a little sunshine into
someone’s day, he went to pay for his groceries. “That comes to
121.85,” said the checkout girl. “It can’t be that much ! I only
bought 5 items.” The checkout girl replied “Yes, but your Mother said
you’d pay for her things, too.”
