The man & 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 then 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, they 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
& man said they were probably right, so they decided to carry the donkey. As
they crossed the bridge, they lost their grip on the animal & 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 good-bye.
Have a nice day
and be careful with your 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 & the boy was riding.
