He’d had enough of the world after a woman
who said she’d marry him left him.

He gave up all his possessions and went to
a forest to live in a cave like a monk.

After three months of solitary living and
meditating for hours daily,

he went a little crazy and returned to the
world to try to restore his sanity.

A month later, he met a good woman
who helped him back to normalcy.

Some people are not cut out for solitary,
monastic deprivations.

And there is nothing like the healing touch
and loving support of a good woman.
