No, it's really not an urban legend

Some years ago I heard this story on the radio as I was driving to our church small group. ironically the evening's topic was essentially stubborness.

My husband I think back to this story often and when one of us is in "no, I'll do it myself mode" the other generally says brightly, "great, I'll get the tarp." It's the universal signal in our household that we're being unreasonable and we need help. I'm not making light of this couple but I do think it is the ULTIMATE story of tragedy when we can not admit we can't do it all on our own. Print it out and stick it somewhere.

The Price of Stubborn
