A man was once seen lamenting the death of a close relative.
A friend approached him to offer condolences and to console him.
The man said he was crying not because his uncle died, but because he had left him an inheritance of a million dollars.
His friend was aghast. “You just got a million dollars, and you are crying?”
The man continued to cry. “Just yesterday, another uncle of mine died, and he too left me a million dollars.”
“And the day before that? One more uncle died, and he too left me a million dollars.”
The friend just couldn’t take it anymore, “You just inherited 3 million dollars out of thin air, and you are crying?”
“Yes”, said the man, “now I don’t have any more uncles who can die!”
What do we focus on in our lives? The money or the uncles?
