Years ago, probably circa 1995 or 1996, I was working as a substitute teacher on Long Island, and was covering an 11th grade history class. As things often go, we got off topic and started to discuss cars.
“With my car (a 10 year old Nissan) I’m lucky to drive on the road.” I replied.
She laughed and so did the rest of the class
Life Lesson 17: The Talmud says that “A lesson taught with humor is a lesson remembered.” I am not sure what the lesson is from this story, but it’s often a good idea to be honest, direct, and having a sense of humor especially the ability to laugh at yourself occasionally is a good thing.
