An old man lived alone in a village. He wanted tospade his potato garden, but it was very hard work.His only son, who would have helped him, was in prison.

The old man wrote a letter to his son and mentionedhis situation:

Dear Son,
I am feeling pretty bad because it looks like I won'tbe able to plant my potato garden this year. I hate tomiss doing the garden, because your mother alwaysloved planting time. I'm just getting too old to bedigging up a garden plot. If you were here, all mytroubles would be over. I know you would dig the plotfor me, if you weren't in prison.

Love,
Dad

Shortly, the old man received this telegram: "ForHeaven's sake, Dad, don't dig up the garden!! That'swhere I buried the GUNS!!"

At 4 a.m. the next morning, a dozen FBI agents andlocal police officers showed up and dug up the entiregarden without finding any guns.

Confused, the old man wrote another note to his son telling him what happened, and asked him what to do next.

His son's reply was: "Go ahead and plant your potatoes, Dad.. It's the best I could do for you from here."

MORAL:-
NO MATTER WHERE YOU ARE IN THE WORLD, IF YOU HAVE DECIDED TO DO SOMETHING DEEP FROM YOUR HEART YOU CAN DO IT. IT IS THE THOUGHT THAT MATTERS NOT WHERE YOU ARE OR WHERE THE PERSON IS.
