DON'T CRY OVER SPILT
SOUP
An old Chinese farmer was
walking along the road with a stick across his shoulder. Hanging from the stick
was a pot filled with soy bean soup. He stumbled and the jar fell off and broke
into pieces. The old farmer kept going, unperturbed. A man rushed up and said
excitedly, "Don't you know that you jar broke?" "Yes", the old farmer answered.
"I know, I heard it fall." "It's broken; the soup is gone - what can I do about
it?" he asked.
