    Toward the end of Sunday service, the Minister asked, 'How many of you have forgiven your enemies?'
    80% held up their hands.
    The Minister then repeated his question. All responded this time, except one small elderly lady.
    'Miss Joyce''; 'Are you not willing to forgive your enemies?'
    I don't have any.' She replied, smiling sweetly.
    'Miss Joyce', that is very unusual. How old are you?'
    'Ninety-eight.' she replied.
    'Oh, Miss. Joyce, would you please come down in front & tell us all how a person can live ninety-eight years & not have an enemy in the world?'

    The little sweetheart of a lady tottered down the aisle, faced the congregation, and said:

    'I outlived every dang one of them.'

    I hope to see that day someday. Wouldn't it be great to know you were going to live to be 98?
