Hearing Problem - A Small Story

A man feared his wife wasn't hearing as well as she used to and he
thought she might need a hearing aid. Not quite sure how to approach
her, he called the family doctor to discuss the problem. The Doctor told
him there is a simple informal test the husband could perform to give
the Doctor a better idea about her hearing loss.

Here's what you do," said the Doctor, "stand about 40 feet away from
her, and in a normal conversational speaking tone see if she hears you.
If not, go to 30 feet, then 20 feet, and s o on until you get a
response.

"That evening, the wife is in the kitchen cooking dinner, and he was in
the den. He says to himself, "I'm about 40 feet away, let's see what
happens." then in a normal tone he asks, 'Honey, what's for dinner?" No
response. So the husband moves to closer to the kitchen, about 30 feet
from his wife and repeats, "Honey, what's for dinner?" Still no
response.

Next he moves into the dining room where he is about 20 feet
from his wife and asks, Honey, what's for dinner?" Again he gets no
response, so he walks up to the kitchen door, about 10 feet away.

"Honey, what's for dinner?" Again there is no response. So he walks
right up behind her.
"Honey, what's for dinner?"
James, for the FIFTH time I've said,
CHICKEN!"


Moral of the story:

The problem may not be with the other one as we always think, could be
very much within us ..!
