Title: The power of milk
Post by: JuST Peter on December 20, 2015, 03:24:35 PM
In  a Convent in Ireland the 99-year-old Mother  Superior lay quietly. She was dying.

The  Nuns had gathered around her bed laying garlands around her and trying to make her last journey comfortable. They wanted to give her warm milk to  drink but she declined.

One of the nuns took the glass back to the kitchen. Then remembering a bottle of Irish Whiskey that had been received as a gift  the previous Christmas she opened it and poured a generous amount into the warm milk.  Back at Mother Superior's bed they lifted her head gently and held the glass to her lips. The very frail Nun drank a little then a little more and before  they knew it she had finished the whole glass down to the last drop. As her eyes brightened the nuns thought it would be a good opportunity to have one last talk with their spiritual leader."Mother"  the nuns asked earnestly"Please give us some of your wisdom before you leave us." 
 
She raised herself up very slowly in the bed on one elbow, looked at them and said: " DON'T SELL THAT COW."
