A Lifetime Doing Nothing (Story 36 excerpt)

Story 36 from 'A Lifetime Doing Nothing' by Ian McCrorie . One night a man lost his keys. He looked for them under a street lamp. A friend walked by, saw him looking for something, and asked him what he lost. “My keys,” he replied. “Oh,” said his friend. “Where did you lose them?” “Over there. In the woods,” came the reply. Stunned, the friend asked, “But why are you looking for them here?” “The light is much brighter here!” the man replied. narrated by Ian McCrorie 2022 4 minutes 09 seconds Listen to Streaming Audio Your browser does not support the audio element.
