A farmer came running home one day with news.
"Did you hear, my wife? There is a rumor in town that the Messiah is coming this year. Woe as me! What will we do? I have so much invested in the farm, rebuilt the house and cultivated the fields. Now we will have to leave everything behind and go."
"Don't worry, my husband," his wife consoled him.
"We Jews have gone through so much suffering. We had a Pharaoh, a Haman and the good good Lord helped get rid of them. I am sure that he will also help us get rid of the Messiah too!"
When times are bad we wish for better days. When times are good we forget what we once dreamed of.
