The 3 peppers.....

The garage light was out on a dark Friday night. The guests were scheduled to arrive in half hours time. The salads were complete – all except for the red pepper strips. I search the refrigerator & realize that all the peppers are in the refrigerator outside – in the garage. I go outside to blindly search for the peppers.
"I can feel for a pepper but it will be difficult to feel for the color." I announce on my way into the garage. "I guess I'll have to bring in one of each color." I say jokingly.
In the pitch black garage I open the refrigerator door. I open the vegetable drawer and feel for a pepper. "Ok, let me feel for colors here." I say to the girl standing next to me. "This one is red, this must be orange, & this is definitely a green one." Laughing at my magical pepper color guessing I walk back into the house holding the 3 peppers in my hand, hoping that one of them would actually be red.
I open the door and as soon as I enter the room and can see again I look down into my hands to see the 3 peppers that I was holding.
To my amazement I was holding, one red pepper, one orange pepper & one green pepper.
The lesson we can learn from this… I have not yet thought of one. What can we learn from a pepper? Just thought it was kind of cool!
