Love, Success And Wealth

Outside the house a woman saw 3 old men standing in her front yard. She said, “I don’t think I know you, but you must be hungry. Please come in and have something to eat.”

 “We do not go into a House together,” they replied.

“Why is that?” she wanted to know. One of the old men explained: “His name is Wealth,” he said pointing to one of his friends, and said pointing to another one, “He is Success, and I am Love.” Then he added, “Now go in and discuss with your family which one of us you want in your home.”

The woman went in and told her husband what was said. Her husband was overjoyed. “How nice!” He said, “If that is the case, let us invite Wealth. Let him come and fill our home with wealth! We will be happy.”

His wife disagreed. “My dear, why don’t we invite Success? If success comes in, we will never have to face failure and we will be happy forever.”

Their daughter was listening from the other corner of the house. She jumped in with her own suggestion: “Would it not be better to invite Love? Our home will then be filled with love and love makes the world a better place!”

“Let us heed our daughter’s advice,” said the husband. And he asked his daughter to go out and invite Love to be the guest.

The daughter went out and asked, “Which one of you is Love? Please come in and be our guest.” Love got up and started walking toward the house. The other 2 also got up and followed him. Surprised, the girl asked Wealth and Success: “I only invited Love, Why are you coming in?”

The old men replied together: “If you had invited Wealth or Success, the other two of us would’ve stayed out, but since you invited Love, wherever He goes, we go with him!”
