Last week, I told you a story about a rusty ladder that put me in a dangerous predicament but taught me a valuable lesson from the incident. This week, I have another gutter-cleaning story where I learned another priceless lesson. This incident occurred before last-week’s story. Both are true stories from my youth, which is how many of us learned some of our most prized life lessons.
I should mention that there are a lot of fictional books that portray a wise male mentor who guides the main character. The Alchemist and Way of the Peaceful Warrior come to mind. In my true-life stories, however, most of the lessons I’ve gained in life came from wise women—just thought it should be noted.

What a beautiful story with such a great lesson. I loved it.
Thank you!
An enjoyable story. I like that you did what you could with the task before you, despite the dilemma. I also loved the response of Mrs. White. Thank you. I am enjoying my subscription!
