Who sent the Tickets

By on September 11, 2011 in Jokes, Story

A young couple got married and went on vacation to a neighbouring country.

After 2 weeks they came back and finally put away all of the presents they received from friends and family.

Since the home was new, the process took some time.

The silver went into the closet, items were put on the walls for display and some of the more intimate apparel was put in the bedroom drawers.

A week later, they received in the mail two tickets for a very expensive entertainment park.

They were very excited and warmed by the gesture of the person who sent this. Inside the envelope, however, was only a small piece of paper with a single line: “Guess who sent them.”

The pair had much fun trying to identify the donor, but failed in the effort.

They went to the entertainment park, and had a wonderful time.

On their return home late at night, still trying to guess the identity of the unknown host, they found the house stripped of every article of value.

And on the bare table in the dining-room was a piece of paper on which was written in the same hand as the enclosure with the tickets: “Now you know!”

Moral: Don’t take things for granted without knowing. Nothing in life is for free.

    The moral to the story who sent the ticket is NOT ALL THAT GLITTERS IS GOLD. Thank you Sara, that was  good. It was difficult to guess who.

    Gifts are presented by “Hearts”. Accept it when you know the name of those heart and ignore it if the names are hidden. No matter how much worth it may be…

    There is no logic in this story. If they went on vacation for two weeks why the theif did not visit their house while they were out on vacation. He could have avoided buying the expensive tickets.

    • mustafa September 11, 2011 at 3:20 PM #

      maybe he was not ready yet
      or he didn’t know

    • Me September 11, 2011 at 5:24 PM #

      Dear
      He plan to steal the gifts they recieved
      The silver and etc..

      I hope now you get the point 🙂

      Congratulations Eloseryi!!!!. Your moral is selected as the best, and put in the main story.

    Moral for today’s story could be :
    Never accept gift from Unknown People

  35. Stephen September 11, 2011 at 7:48 AM #

    The couple paid a hefty penalty for thier foolishness. What they spent for thier 2 weeks of holiday & just for a couple of hours at the entertainment park (free), they surrendered everything to the invisible & got destroyed financially & now to overcome all of this misery will take months, but the lesson & nagging will be labelled with them for eternity.
    Nothing comes free & due to this economic crisis, none have anything to give, except kindness, but that is rare, so be aware & be alert. God Bless all.

    What a stupid story and moral, do you really think that we have free time to think about it, Jokes and stories are should be jokes and stories not questions and answers…..

  41. Abd Sof September 11, 2011 at 7:08 AM #

    i agree …and this clever thief did not do his attack in their honey moon(and he had 2 weeks ) but he chose to buy 2 expensive tickets first ….

    i think the moral is :
    don’t believe everything u read (or hear  )

  42. Dherar Ababneh September 11, 2011 at 7:07 AM #

    before accepting a vacation you have to know who sent it and why, nowadays nobody give things free.

  43. Abier Al.Madfah September 11, 2011 at 7:05 AM #

    My family tried something like this once, but we didn’t accept the tickets because my dad had heard about a story like this one before…
    I think that it should be:
    Don’t take anything for granted!

  44. Muhammad Belal September 11, 2011 at 7:03 AM #

    Not everything is as it looks.

      Marriages are not supposed to be grand or big!!…A simple nikah will do. Since they got such a big marriage with lots of expensive gifts, the thief set eyes on them.ANother one could be that:That is why young couples like each other; THEY’RE STUPID(am sure you like this one … LOL)
