A 92-YEAR-OLD woman from Florida, USA, was arrested after she fired a handgun into her neighbour's house when he refused to give her a kiss.
Helen Staudinger told Marion County sheriff's deputies that she had walked next door to speak with her neighbor, 53-years-old Dwight Better, who she said had asked her to leave. She insisted she would not leave until he had given her a kiss. After a brief argument, she got a .380 semi-automatic handgun from her home and fired several shots into Mr. Bettner's home. One of the bullets flew into Mr. Bettner's bedroom, where he was hit with flying glass. The man told the police that Ms Staudinger, a widow, had expressed a fondness for him since he moved to the neighbourhood six months earlier. "I told her I'm in a relatinship," Mr. Bettner said. " She has this idea I'm supposed to be her man. " Ms. Staudinger was charged with aggravated assult and shooting into an occupied dwelling. Oh what a world of loneliness! All she wanted from this man, who is 39 years younger than her, was just a kiss or she would offer him the gift of death! But did this woman know that many married couples are still lonely despite marriage? Psalm 34:18 says: ' The Lord is near to those who have a broken heart..."HE IS NEAR! That means that there are season when everyone goes through a "loneliness school" that only Jehovah God can graduate you from! Yes, it is not good to be alone, but the cure for loneliness is not a kiss or a gun! It is not even marriage because someday, everyone will be a widow or widower! In fact, someone said: "If you are afriad of loneliness, do not marry." Indeed, only God can fill the vacuum of loneliness and not any man or woman! Sometimes, marriage is like a hot bath. Once you get used to it, it is not so hot. So, set your focus on the Healer of the broken hearted and get yourself busy for God and for man! Peace!
