ONE HOUR

A child loved his dad but seldom saw him. The man was so busy with so many things to do. The child collected bottles and cans, did odd jobs and seemed to be always trying to make money. One day he asked his father, "How much do you make in an hour?"

The dad said, "$20.00, why?"

After another week of work, the boy asked his dad to borrow $10.00. "Why do you need the money?," the dad asked.

"Well, I've worked hard dad, but I still only have $10.00. If I could just get another $10.00 I would have enough for what I want most in the world. Dad, could I please buy one hour of your time?"
