A man and woman had been married for more than 60 years. They had shared everything and kept no secrets from each other, except that the woman had a shoe box at the top of her closet that she had cautioned her husband never to open or ask her about. For all of these years, he had never thought about the box, but one day the woman got very sick and the doctor said she would not recover. In trying to sort out their affairs, the man took down the shoe box and took it to his wife’s beside. She agreed that it was time that he should know what was in it. When he opened it, he found two crocheted dolls and a stack of money totaling $95,000. He asked her about the contents. “When we were to be married, ” she said, “my grandmother told me that the secret of a happy marriage was to never argue. She told me that If I ever got angry with you, I should just keep quiet and crochet a doll.” The man was moved to hear this. Only two precious dolls were in the box. She had only been angry with him twice in all those years of living. He almost burst with happiness. “Honey, ” he said, “What about all this money? Where did it come from?” “Thats the money I made it from selling the dolls”, she said.
