The Wisdom that Comes with Age

The Wisdom That Comes With Age

The strong young man at the construction site was
bragging that he could outdo anyone in a feat of
strength. He made a special case of making fun
of one of the older workmen.

After several minutes, the older worker had had
enough. "Why don't you put your money where
your mouth is?" he said. "I will bet a week's wages
that I can haul something in a wheelbarrow over to
that building that you won't be able to wheel back."
"You're on, old man," the young guy replied.

The old man reached out and grabbed the
wheelbarrow by the handles. Then he turned to
the young man and said, "Alright. Get in."
