All women should live long enough to be this kind of old lady!


 
Toward the end of Sunday service, the Pastor asked, “How many of you have forgiven
your enemies?”  Eighty percent held up their hands.
 
The Minister then repeated his question. “How many of you have forgiven your enemies?”
 
This time, all raised their hands except for one small elderly lady.
 
‘Mrs. Neely?’; ‘Are you not willing to forgive your enemies?’
 
I don’t have any..’ She replied, smiling sweetly.
 
‘Mrs. Neely, that is very unusual. How old are you?’
 
‘Ninety-eight.’ she replied.
 
‘Oh, Mrs. Neely, would you please come down in front & tell us all, how a person can live
ninety-eight years & not have a single enemy in the world?’
 
The little sweetheart of a lady tottered down the aisle,
faced the congregation, and said:“I outlived the bitches”.
