Walking Your Talk

A couple of weeks ago I was in my local bank waiting in the queue before two young ladies. They were talking rather loudly, in a discussion of the ways of people and their obsession over money; stating that it was just paper and not worth the piece it was printed on. One of the young women went on to say how if she dropped her money on the floor, how silly people would be to rush and grab the worthless bit of paper. She kept going on about how worthless it was.

I thought 'here is a lady with some strong beliefs and/or convictions.' I wanted to test her theory so I turned round to face her and noted she had about £15 in her hands. I said. "I'll take your money!" (It may be worthless but I could still find a use for it.) She stopped talking and stared at me. Her companion was silent also. I had a smile on my face and they both just glared at me; speechless. I could see she was annoyed as she held tightly onto her worthless money. The muscles in her face twitched subtlety as she held back whatever it was she wanted to say to me.

As I realised that she really wanted to hold onto her money I turned away. There was silence behind me for a while before they began talking; on another topic.

The worthless notes were of value to her after all.
