The Donkey
An old man, a boy & a donkey were going to town.
The boy rode on the donkey & 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.
Then, 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 thought
They were stupid to walk when they had 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!
Have A Nice Day And
Be Careful With Your Donkey

Old story but true still

I heard this story in 1945, in school, without the rather off color words. The moral of the story was to not be intimated by others. Just do what you think is right.
