1. One morning, a delivery driver was unloading new frames when he noticed something odd on the shelf. Among the usual glasses and lenses sat an old pair of spectacles with no label or price tag. Curious, he picked them up—only to hear a faint whisper from behind the counter. The whisper grew louder: 'Try me on!' The delivery driver smiled sheepishly and put on the glasses. Suddenly, everyone in the shop started laughing—including the old man next door who’d been staring through those very same specs for years.

It turned out that the old gentlemen looked more like a cross between Albert Einstein and a mischievous Santa Claus. With a twinkle in his eye, he paid for the glasses and left, muttering something about finally finding his true identity.

Turns out, it had been sitting on the counter all along.
