He said, "Look at my hair. It used to be so magnificent, but it's completely gone now. My hair can't be saved. But look outside at the forest. It's such a lovely forest with so many trees, but sooner or later they'll all be cut down and this forest will look as bald as my hair."
"What I want you to do..." the man continued. "Is, every time a tree is cut down or dies, plant a new one in my memory. Tell your descendants to do the same. It shall be our family's duty to keep this forest strong."
So they did.
Each time the forest lost a tree, the children replanted one, and so did their children, and their children after them.
And for centuries, the forest remained as lush and pretty as it once was, all because of one man and his re-seeding heirline.
He said he can't complain.
She got up, unplugged my laptop and threw out my beer….
EDIT: Thanks for the kind awards... My first ever! ❤️
I was so concerned I jumped up and ran over to him...
Earlier that day my friend and I who were really into mountain biking had been using really sticky letters to put our names on our bikes. We were working near the general area of the BBQ.
Apparently I had dropped one...
Stuck to the bottom of my dads foot was the letter B....
A legendary dad joke from a legendary dad.
Curiosity killed the cat :(
It’s got it’s ups and downs
Neighbors
Turns out being a free lance photographer isn’t all it’s cracked up to be.
Lou.
to a no-fly zone
Everyone thinks I'm have a Midwife crisis.
That's because curious people are lifelong learners.
Learners are also known as pupils.
And pupils dilate.
Flaming-os
He's got all these really weird rules you have to follow, like whenever you eat cabbage, he insists you have to eat it with mayonnaise.
It's just Cole's law.
(Thought of this one whilst trying to come up with puns to annoy my husband. He abhors dad jokes, and receiving this look -_- means I did a good job.)
Wookie mistake.
They're Millennial Falcons
He was a real hermit
Because if they lived in pepper water, they would sneeze.
For real tho. Donate your organs. It saved my dads life 😁
I don't know but I'm getting hungry.
"Who's watching Peace TV?"
A Wokemon.
It was there to visit its family.
Have lofty dreams?
A sandwitch
Her: "So what does that mean, you just sit around thinking about being all day?"
Me: "No, some days I also think about nothing."
Since then, he's living in a flat.
Police say he was charged with counter fitting
She's a mother trucker.
So I guess you could say the Antarctic is the un-bear-a-pole region!
When he arrives she says “I’ve decided what I want for dinner.”
It said “Michelle”
"I guess that means all the Millennial Falcons are gone."
That can't be good for his back.
Global chaos ensues.
The disease wipes out 99% of humanity, and the desperate survivors are forced to live in a post-alpaca lip tick wasteland.
My dad passed away about 3 years ago. Now that I am a dad as well I thought I would pass on his favorite joke, bear with me cuz its long, but worth it...
A poor man who lives in a straw hut wants to to impress his neighbor. So he works for 3 months, enough to buy a fancy chair at the market. He calls his neighbor over for dinner one night and has him sit in the chair at dinner. He asks his neighbor, " isn't this a very nice chair? " To which the neighbor replies "it's okay i guess"...
Heartbroken, after the neighbor leaves, the man takes the chair upstairs and puts it in a closet and thinks.. maybe it was not a nice enough chair...
He then works 6 months, leaves his little straw hut and hitches a ride to the city and buys an extravagant chair with velvet padding. Once again he has his neighbor over for dinner, this time the neighbor says "it's nice, but I've seen better"
Sad, the man stores the chair in the upstairs closet. But the man could not be deterred.
He then worked for an entire year, left his little straw hut and went all the way to the capitol and bought a gaudy, gold painted chair with lion motifs and silk pillows.
The neighbor comes over to dinner and says. "Wow, what an ugly chair!"
Furious, the man grabs the chair, marches upstairs and throws it in the closet with such force that his entire straw hut collapses.
I guess people who live in grass houses shouldn't stow thrones...
She sells sea shells on the sea shore.
Because pepper water would make them sneeze.
