A
couple attended marriage counseling to resolve communication problems.
The fighting and bickering during the session was so bad the counselor
called for a timeout and told them he was ending the session early
but had an assignment for the husband.
“John,”
the marriage counselor said, “you’re an athletic guy…
here’s what I want you to do. I want you to jog 10 miles everyday
for the next 30 days. At the end of the 30 days call me and let
me know how things are going.”
John
agreed.
At the
end of the 30 days, John called the marriage counselor very excited.
“I did just as you said and I have never felt better in my
life!” he exclaimed over the phone.
“Great!”
replied the counselor, “ And how’s your wife?”
John
paused and then replied with agitated dismay, “How should
I know, I’m 300 miles from home!” |
