A man observed a woman in the supermarket with a three year old girl in her trolley. As they passed the biscuits section, the child asked for biscuits and her mother told her "no." The little girl immediately began to whine and fuss, and the mother said quietly, "Now Ellen, we just have half of the aisles left to go through, don't be upset. It won't be long."
He passed the Mother again in the sweets aisle. Of course, the little girl began to shout for sweets. When she was told she couldn't have any, she began to cry. The mother said, "There, there, Ellen, don't cry. Only two more aisles to go, and then we'll be at the check-out."
The man again happened to be behind the pair at the check-out, where the little girl immediately began to clamour for chewing gum and burst into a terrible tantrum upon discovering there would be no chewing gum purchased today. The mother patiently said, "Ellen, we'll be through this check out in five minutes, and then you can go home and have a nice nap."
The man followed them out to the car park and stopped the woman to compliment her. "I couldn't help noticing how patient you were with little Ellen..."
The mother broke in, "My little girl's name is Tammy... I'm Ellen."
If we all threw our problems in a pile and saw everyone else’s, we’d grab ours back.
