Forgive Your Enemies
> The preacher, in his Sunday sermon, used "Forgive Your Enemies"
> as his subject.
>
> After a long sermon, he asked how many were willing to forgive
> their enemies. About half held up their hands. Not satisfied
> he harangued (someone subscribes to bigwords.com!) for another
> twenty minutes and repeated his question. This time he
> received a response of eighty percent. Still unsatisfied,
> he lectured for fifteen minutes and repeated his question.
> With all thoughts now on Sunday dinner, all responded except
> one elderly lady in the rear.
>
> "Ms. Jones, are you not willing to forgive your enemies?"
>
> "I don't have any."
>
> "Ms. Jones, that is very unusual. How old are you?"
>
> "Ninety-three."
>
> "Ms. Jones, please come down in front and tell the
> congregation how a person can live to ninety-three and not
> have an enemy in the world."
>
> The little sweetheart of a lady teetered down the aisle,
> very slowly turned around & said: "It's easy. I just outlived
> the sons of bitches."
