"About A Donkey"

An old man, a boy and a donkey were going to town.

The boy rode on the donkey and the old man walked.

As they went along, they passed some people who
remarked it was a shame the old man was walking
and the boy was riding.

The man and boy thought maybe the critics were right,
so they changed positions.

Later, they passed some people that remarked, "What
a shame, he makes that little boy walk."

They decided they both would walk!

Soon they passed some more people who thought
they were stupid to walk when they had a decent
donkey to ride. So the both rode the donkey!

Now they passed some people that shamed them
by saying how awful to put such a load on a poor
donkey.

The boy and man said they were probably right so
they decided to carry the donkey. As they crossed
a bridge, they lost their grip on the animal and he
fell into the river and drowned.

The moral of the story?

If you try to please everyone, you will eventually
lose your a*s!
