A Better Way To Say It

Sometimes people can hurt others by the words they say - whether they mean it or not. Choice of words is a factor. Although I believe that more often than not, the biggest factor is the condition of the heart of the receiver.

Here's another story about how a clever husband can send a message to his wife without hurting her.

At the dining area, husband and wife are just about to have their dinner. The wife just finished preparing the table.

At first bite, the husband found that the food was way too salty for him. He didn't want his wife who lovingly prepared it to get hurt. He wanted to appreciate her effort so he ate as he would normally do (when it's not salty).

After dinner, he asked her, "Honey, is salt on sale today? You mus have bought a lot."
