"There was an old woman. Every day she walked to the old well to get water. There was a much nearer well to her house, but she believed the water from the old well to be holy, and so each day she made the long trek. One day her son was angry with her, so he went and destroyed the old well and covered the hole over with dirt. The woman walked down the road and past the spot where once the well had stood. For years she continued to walk down that road. When anyone asked why she was carrying a pitcher she would say 'I search for the well of truth to fetch some water' The real reason was because her gray hair had long ago been blonde"
