This Easter egg tree in Germany is decorated with over 10,000 Easter Eggs! It took the family around two weeks to hang all of them!

PUNCTUATION IS POWERFUL

What is the difference between these sentences?
Is there any difference at all?

1. My wife who I upset is so important to me.
2. My wife, who I upset, is so important to me.

In the first case, if we write such a sentence our wife may, eventually, forgive us.
However, NO ONE should EVER use the SECOND VERSION!
As in this case the result might be opposite.

WHY?

The translation is:

1. I have one wife. The commas are not necessary.
2. I have more than one wife (number unspecified :) ). The commas are used in order to specify exactly WHICH WIFE I am talking about. In this case, I am talking about the one whom I have upset, so there is (or are) also another one (others) which I do not mention. Moreover, speaker also specifies that THIS PARTICULAR wife is important to him.
