Let There Be Peace
А.
wise old gentleman retired and purchased a modest home near a junior high school,
He spent the first weeks of his retirement in peace and contentment. Then a new
school year began. The very next afternoon, three young boys full of youthful, after
school enthusiasm-came down the street, beating merrily on every trash can they
encountered. The crashing percussion continued day after day, until finally, the wise old
man decided it was time to take some action.
The next afternoon, he walked out to meet the young percussionists as they banged their
way down the street. Stopping them, he said, 'You kids are a lot of fun. I like to see it.
Used to do the same thing when I was your age. Will you do me a favour? I'll give you
each a dollar if you'll promise to come around every day and do your thing!
The kids were elated and continued to do a bang-up job on the trash cans. After a few
days, the old timer greeted the kids. He had a sad smile on his face. This recession is
really putting a big dent in my income, he told them. 'From now on, I'll only be able to
pay you 50 cents to beat on the cans. The noisemakers were obviously displeased. But
they did accept his offer and continued their afternoon ruckus.
A few days later, the wily
retiree approached them
again as theyy down the
street. 'Look, he said,
I haven't received my
social security check
yet, so I'm not going
to be able to give you
more than 25 cents.
Will that be okay?'
'A lousy quarter?' the
drum leader exclaimed,
If you think we're
going to waste our time,​
