"THE WATCH STRAP AND THE COMB"


"THE WATCH STRAP AND THE COMB"
(author unknown)

Once upon a time, there was a humble man who lived with his beloved wife. Though their means were modest, their love for each other was boundless.
One day, the wife, with her beautiful long hair, gently asked her husband if he could buy her a comb. She longed for a simple gift that would help her hair grow even more lovely and keep it neatly groomed.
With a heavy heart, the man regretfully declined, explaining that he didn’t even have enough money to repair the broken strap on his watch. Though disappointed, the wife didn’t press her request any further.
Determined to bring a smile to her face, the man went to work and, on his way, passed by a watch shop. He made a heartfelt decision to sell his broken watch at a fraction of its worth. With the small amount of money he received, he bought a beautiful comb for his wife.
When he returned home that evening, he eagerly presented the comb to his wife, only to find her with a new, short haircut. In her hands was a shiny new watch band.
They looked at each other, and tears of joy streamed down their faces—not because of the sacrifices they had made, but because of the profound love they shared. In that moment, they understood the true essence of their devotion.
MORAL: Loving someone is beautiful, being loved is wonderful, but loving and being loved by the one you cherish is everything. Never take love for granted.
