chicken and duck stuff

i use this story whenever i am feeling confused and i thought i would share it with you all..

The Chicken and The Duck.

A newly Married couple went for a walk together one fine summer's day.

 They were having a wonderful time together, being together when they

 heard a sound in the distance..

 'Quack quack!'

 'Listen', said the wife. 'That must be a chicken'.

'No, no', said the husband...'thats a duck'.

 'No, I'm sure that's a chicken'. She said.

'Impossible'. 'Chickens go cluck cluck. Duck go quack quack. That is a

 duck..darling a duck!' He said with his first sign of irritation.

 'Quack, Quack',! It went again

 'See! It's a duck'. He said!

 'No dear, that is a chicken. I'm positive'. She asserted. Digging in

 her heels.

 'Listen wife! That....is...a...DUCK. D..U..C..K...DUCK! got it', he

 said angrily.

 'But it's a chicken' ,she protested.

 'It's a bloomin' duck, you'...

 And it went

 'Quack quack!' Before he said something he really shouldn't.

 The wife was almost in tears...but it's a chicken..

 Then...the husband saw the tears welling up in his wifes eyes and at

 last remembered why he had married her.

 His face softened and he said gently.

 'Sorry darling.

I think I must have been mistaken...that is a chicken'..

 'Thankyou darlin' she said

And squeezed his hand.

 'Quack quack!' Went the sound again and they continued their walk in

 love.

The point of the story is that the husband finally awakened to who

 cares whether it was a chicken or a duck?

what does it matter?

 What was much more important was their harmony together, that they

 could enjoy a walk on a fine summers day..

 (for the sake of gender equality switch the sexes around if you want

:) so the man is the one who thinks it's a chicken!!)

 But really how many times are we worrying about chicken and duck stuff?

 What does it matter..

chicken or duck...
