An old man, a boy & 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
"What a shame the old man is walking and the boy is riding." The man and boy
thought maybe the critics were right, so they changed positions.
Later they
passed some people who remarked, "What a shame.... he makes that little boy
walk." So they then decided they'd both walk!
Soon they passed some more people
who remarked, "They're really stupid to walk when they have a decent donkey to
ride." So, they both rode the donkey. Now they passed some people who shamed
them by saying "How awful to put such a load on a poor donkey."
The boy and man
figured they were probably right,so they decide to carry the donkey. As they
crossed the 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
might as well... Kiss your ass goodbye!
