Each week, a young widow faithfully tended to her husband’s grave, diligently watering the flowers. After each visit, she would depart, always with her back to the grave. One day, a young man who had been quietly observing her approached and remarked, “Your devotion to your late husband is truly remarkable. I couldn’t help but notice you never turn your back when you leave, it’s quite touching.”
With a gentle smile, she replied, “You see, my husband often teased me, claiming my presence could rouse the dead. I’d rather not risk it!”
