Best Solidarity
A year after their wedding, the husband went on a business trip. Delayed, he informed his wife that he had stopped by to visit his best friend, while he had actually managed to take a trip to Issyk-Kul. The clever wife sent telegrams to all his friends. And she received completely identical replies from them: “Don’t worry, he’s with me.” Now that’s true male friendship!
Worship
Long ago, on the shores of Lake Issyk-Kul, there lived an old woman of about eighty. Nearby, in her own house, lived her relative, who was only a few years older. And every time they met, the old woman bowed before her older relative.
Young girls who witnessed this constantly asked her the same question:
- Aunty, why do you bow before your relative, you are almost the same age? You don’t have to bow.
My daughters, I bow not for myself, but for the honor and good memory of my husband, who is no longer in this world, - she replied.
Death or Victory
Long ago, a general and his team arrived on an island occupied by enemies. And when they reached the shore, he commanded to burn all the boats. Then, addressing his astonished army, he said:
- Now we have only one way! Either we die here, or victory will be ours; there is no other option!
Pythagoras had 4 periods of life, each lasting 20 years: spring, summer, autumn, winter.
