A woman came out of her house and saw 3 old
men with long white beards sitting in her front
yard. She did not recognize them. She said "I
don't think I know you, but you must be hungry.
Please come in and have something to eat."
"Is the man of the house home?", they asked.
"No", she said. "He's out."
"Then we cannot come in", they replied.
In the evening when her husband came home, she
told him what had happened.
"Go tell them I am home and invite them in!"
The women went out and invited the men in.
"We do not go into a House together", they
replied.
"Why is that?" she wanted to know.
One of the old men explained: "His name is
Wealth," he said pointing to one of his friends,
and said pointing to another one, "He is
Success, and I am Love." Then he added, "Now go
in and discuss with your husband which one of us
you want in your home."
The woman went in and told her husband what was
said. Her husband was overjoyed. "How nice!!",
he said. "Since that is the case, let us invite
Wealth. Let him come and fill our home with
wealth!"
His wife disagreed. "my dear, why don't we
invite Success?"
Their daughter-in-law was listening from the
other corner of the house. She jumped in with
her own suggestion: "Would it not be better to
invite Love? Our home will then be filled with
love!"
"Let us heed our daughter-in-law's advice", said
the husband to his wife. "Go out and invite Love
to be our guest."
The woman went out and asked the 3 old men,
"Which one of you is Love? Please come in and be
our guest."
Love got up and started walking toward the
house. The other 2 also got up and followed him.
Surprised, the lady asked Wealth and Success: "I
only invited Love, why are you coming in?"
The old men replied together: "If you had
invited Wealth or Success, the other two of us
would have stayed out, but since you invited
Love, wherever he goes, we go with him. Wherever
there is Love, there is also Wealth and
Success!!!!!!"
