A MAN and his son were once going with their Donkey to market. As they were passing first village people commented: “You fools, what is a Donkey for but to ride upon?” So the Man put the Boy on the Donkey and they went on their way. But soon they passed second village where people commented: “See that lazy youngster, he lets his father walk while he rides.” So the Man ordered his Boy to get off, and got on himself. But while passing third village people commented: “Shame on that lazy lout to let his poor little son trudge along.” Well, the Man didn’t know what to do, but at last he took his Boy up before him on the Donkey. By this time they had come to fourth village people commented: “Aren’t you ashamed of yourself for overloading that poor Donkey of yours—you and your hulking son?” The Man and Boy got off and tried to think what to do. They thought and they thought, till at last they cut down a pole, tied the Donkey’s feet to it, and raised the pole and the Donkey to their shoulders. For this also next village people commended simply laughing and saying that; Fools one of the above action could have been taken than simply tying and carrying it. From the above it is learnt that it is impossible to satisfy everyone and therefore listen to the others but take decision what is right by yourself. ALWAYS LISTEN TO LEARN(BUT IF YOU THINK THEY MAY BE CORRECT) FROM OTHERS AND TAKE DECISION FROM YOURSELF.
