A man came home from work late, tired and
\nirritated, to find his 5-year old son waiting for him
\nat the door. <\/p>\n
“Daddy, may I ask you a question?”
\n“Yes sure, what is it?” replied the man
\n“Daddy, how much do you make an hour?”
\n“That’s none of your business, why do you ask
\nsuch a thing?” the man said angrily. <\/p>\n
“I just want to know, please tell me, how much do
\nyou make an hour?” pleaded the little boy.
\n“If you must know, I make $20 an hour”
\n“Oh,” the little boy replied, with his head down,
\nlooking up, he said,
\n“Dad, may I please borrow $10?” <\/p>\n
The father was furious,
\n“If the only reason you asked that is so you can
\nborrow some money to buy a silly toy or some
\nother nonsense, then you march yourself straight
\nto your room and go to bed, think about why you
\nare being so selfish.”
\n“I work long hard hours everyday and don’t have
\ntime for such this childish behavior.” <\/p>\n
The little boy quietly went to his room and shut the
\ndoor.
\nThe man sat down and started to get even angrier
\nabout the little boy’s questions.
\nHow dare he ask such questions only to get some
\nmoney? <\/p>\n
After about an hour or so, he had calmed down,
\nand started to think he may have been a little hard
\non his son.
\nMaybe there was something he really needed to
\nbuy with that $10 and he really didn’t ask for
\nmoney very often. <\/p>\n
The man went to the door of the little boy’s room
\nand opened the door.
\n“Are you asleep, son?” he asked.
\n“No daddy, I’m awake” replied the boy.
\n“I’ve been thinking, maybe I was too hard on you
\nearlier,” said the man.
\n“It’s been a long day and I took out my aggravation
\non you. Here’s the $10 you asked for.” <\/p>\n
The little boy sat straight up, smiling. “Oh, thank
\nyou daddy!” he yelled. <\/p>\n
Then, reaching under his pillow he pulled out some
\ncrumpled up bills.
\nThe man, seeing that the boy already had money,
\nstarted to get angry again. <\/p>\n
The little boy slowly counted out his money, then
\nlooked up at his father.
\n“Why do you want more money if you already have
\nsome?” the father grumbled. <\/p>\n
“Because I didn’t have enough, but now I do,” the
\nlittle boy replied.
\n“Daddy, I have $20 now, can I buy an hour of your
\ntime? Please come home early tomorrow, I would
\nlike to have dinner with you.” <\/p>\n
Share this story with someone you like… but even
\nbetter, share $20 worth of time with someone you
\nlove.
\nIts just a short reminder to all of you working so
\nhard in life. <\/p>\n
We should not let time slip through our fingers
\nwithout having spent some time with those who
\nreally matter to us, those close to our hearts.<\/p>\n
