A married couple in their early 60s was celebrating their 35th wedding anniversary in a quiet, romantic little restaurant. Suddenly, a tiny yet beautiful fairy appeared on their table saying, "For being such an exemplary married couple and for being loving to each other for all this time, I will grant you each a wish." Without giving second thought, the wife wished "Oh, I want to travel around the world with my darling husband." The fairy waved her magic wand and - poof! – two tickets for the Queen Mary II appeared in her hands. The husband' thought for a moment, and said "Well, this is all very romantic, but an opportunity like this will never come again. I'm sorry my love, but my wish is to have a wife 30 years younger than me." The wife, and the fairy, were deeply disappointed, but a wish is a wish. So the fairy waved her magic wand and - poof! – the husband became 92 years old.

Story #1 : Communicate With Specific Words
The moral of this story:
Choose The Right Word. Be specific to what you have to say. Don’t let people do the guessing if you want to succeed. This would not happend to the husband if he was to use specific word like "....my wish is to have a wife age 30 years".
