Peter's uncle lived in the country. Once Peter went to stay with him for a few weeks. Whenever they
went for a walk or for a drive in the car and they passed somebody, his uncle waved. Peter was surprised
and said, "Uncle George, you know everybody here. Where did you meet them all?"
"I don't know all these people," said his uncle "Then why do you wave to them?" asked Peter.
"Well, Peter," answered his uncle, "When I wave to someone and he knows me, he is pleased. He
continued his journey with a happier heart. But when I wave to someone he doesn't know me, he is surprised
and says to himself, 'Who's that man? Why did he wave to me?' so he has to think about during the rest of
his journey, and that makes his journey seem shorter. So I made everybody happy."
