3 one minute stories

*Here are three amusing short stories to share with everyone with deep meaning and worth keeping in mind*. 

*1. "Profound"*

I saw a little kid eating ice cream in the elevator. Out of concern, I casually said, "It's such a cold day; you'll get sick eating that!"

The kid replied, "My grandma lived to be 103."

I asked, "From eating ice cream?"

He said, "No, because she never meddled in other people's business!"

How profound! I finally understand why I'm aging so fast—too much unnecessary meddling.

*2. "Exhausted"*

Scammers are everywhere these days. I just saw on the news about people's savings mysteriously disappearing—tens of thousands of dollars gone without a trace.

Panicking, I rushed to the bank on my bike, inserted my card, entered my password, and checked my balance. Thankfully, my $8 was still there. I breathed a sigh of relief.

Whew, that was nerve-wracking! I swear I'm never watching the news again— too stressful!

As I left the bank, I was even more exhausted: my $8 was safe, but my bike was gone.

*3. "Hold Back"*

A young lady boarded a train and saw a man sitting in her seat. She politely checked her ticket and said, "Sir, I think you're in my seat."

The man pulled out his ticket and shouted, "Look closely! This is my seat! Are you blind?!"

The girl carefully checked his ticket and stopped arguing. She quietly stood beside him.

After the train started moving, the girl leaned over and softly said, "Sir, you're not in the wrong seat, but you're on the wrong train. This is heading to Shanghai, and your ticket is for Harbin."

There's a kind of restraint that leaves people regretting their actions. If yelling solved everything, donkeys would've ruled the world long ago.
