There is an old story about a desert nomad who wake in the middle of the night feeling very hungry. He lit a candle and began eating dates (the fruit of the date palm tree) fro a bowl beside his bed. He took a bite from one and saw a worm in it, so, He threw it out of the tent. He bite the second date, found another worm, and threw it away also. Reasoning that he wouldn't have any date left to eat if he continued, he blew out the candle and quickly ate the rest of the dates. Wow! People are like that sometimes!
