A young boy went to the store with his mother. The shop owner, a kind man, passed him a large jar of suckers and invited him to help himself to a handful. Uncharacteristically, the boy held back. So the shop owner pulled out a handful for him.<\/p>\n
When outside, the boy\u2019s mother asked why he wouldn\u2019t take a handful of suckers when offered.<\/p>\n
\u201cBecause his hand is much bigger than mine!\u201d said the boy.<\/p>\n
