Default Courteous Lady

Courteous Lady

A little old lady owned a home beside the fifth fairway, and
stray golf balls were always landing in her back yard.

Instead of getting angry, she removed the fence along the boundary,
invited the golfers onto her property, showed them where their
ball was located, and encouraged them to take their next shot from
that spot.

Even when they missed and dug deep divots in her lawn, she
would tell them to go ahead and take another swing.

A visitor, after witnessing her overly courteous behavior, couldn't
help but comment. "How come you let them tear up your yard like that?"
the visitor asked, "and not only that, you encourage them."

"I'm not as courteous as you think," the old lady replied. "I'm
planning on turning my yard into a garden, and I figure within
another month they'll have it plowed for me."
