Criticism

Once upon a time:

A story of a man whose grandson rode a donkey while they were traveling from one city to another. The man heard some people say, "Would you look at that man suffering on his feet while that strong young boy is totally capable of walking?"

So then the man rode the donkey while the boy walked. And he heard some people say, "Would you look at that, a healthy man making the poor young boy suffer. Can you believe it?"

So the man and the boy both rode the donkey, and they heard some people say, "Would you look at those heavy brutes making the poor donkey suffer?" So they both got off and walked, until they heard some people say, "Would you look at the waste - a perfectly good donkey not being used."

In the final scene, the boy is walking and the man is carry the donkey.


Moral of the story? No matter what we do, someone can always find a reason to criticize.
