03/25/23 Weekend Grif.Net - Blind Message
b...@grif.net
One day, there was a blind man sitting on the steps of a public building with a cup by his feet and a sign that read: "I am blind, please help."
An ad writer was walking by and stopped to observe. He saw that the blind man had only a few coins in the cup. He dropped in more coins and asked permission to look at the sign and highlight the message a bit.
He returned the sign to the blind man and left. That afternoon the publicist returned by the blind man and noticed that the cup was full of bills and coins.
He mentioned to him that it looked like people were more generous now. The blind man asked what he had written on it.
The ad writer responded: "Nothing that wasn’t true. I just wrote your message a little differently." He smiled and went on his way.
The new sign read: "Today is spring, and I cannot see it."
