One day a young student
at the Buddhist monastery goes to meditate with two monks as part of his education, they go to the opposite side of the lake from the
monastery and are about to start their morning meditation when the first monk says,
"oh no I forgot my mat", so walks up to the lake and walks calmly across the surface of the water to the
monastery and returns with his mat. Suddenly the second monk says
"oh no I've forgotten my sun hat" so he runs across the surface of the water to the
monastery and returns with a straw hat. The student is astounded by this and at the end of the meditation he tries to walk across the water. He falls straight in and emerges soaking wet, the two monks look on and after watching his failed attempts for a while the first monk says to the second
"do you think we should tell him where the stones are!".

you must help me," she pleaded.
"It's gotten so that every time I meet a nice guy, I end up in bed with him.
And then afterward, I feel really guilty and depressed."
