Happiness of life
An American, a Frenchman, and a Vietnamese refugee had a
discussion about the happiness of life.
"To me, happiness is returning home on a Monday evening, having a
wonderful dinner prepared by my wife, then slouching on the sofa
watching Monday Night Football," the American said.
"You Americans are not romantic at all", the French injected,
"Spending a lovely evening with my lover, walking along the Seine
river, and having a romantic dinner on top of the Eiffel tower. That
is happiness of life."
"You call those things happiness", the Vietnamese said, "then you
two still don't understand life at all. Imagine this. You are
sleeping soundly at night in Saigon. Then suddenly you hear loud
knocks on your front door. You hear loud voices, 'Mr. Nguyen Van
Binh, open the door!'. Awaked with fear, you rush out and open the
door. Right there, you see two secret policemen ready to handcuff
you. One man say to you, 'Mr. Nguyen Van Binh, you are under arrest
for your anti-revolutionary activities. You are being sent to the
re-educational camp for an undetermined period of time. Sweating
profusely and shaking uncontrollably, you reply to them, 'Comrades,
Mr. Nguyen Van Binh lives next door.' That moment is the ultimate
happiness of life, my friends."
