The Moral of the Story
I once knew a whistling man and
whistle is all he would do.
This very true story I would like to
share with you.
Ted whistled in the morning when
he woke up and he whistled on his way
to work, in his old truck.
He whistled at lunch and again at break.
Then when the day was over, whistled to
the gate.
Ted whistled each and everyday and it got
to the point where his co-workers, his
whistling they did hate.
One day a co-worker approached Ted and
asked; Why do you constantly whistle, don't
you know it almost drives me mad?
Well, Ted said. Whistling is my reliever, my
stress remedy for as long as I whistle my
friend, dark days do not follow me.
The co-worker smiled at Ted and thanked
him so and told Ted.
You have helped me find a better path
to go.
The story I have told is so very true and if you
hear a whistler very near to you; I hope the
moral of this story will be of help to you.
