Making Haste Slowly, tale:

by kiki2u @ 2006-08-05 - 14:11:22

.A trader bought a large number of coconuts at a village, and loading them on to his horse cart set off for home. Encountering a boy, a little later, he asked him how long it would take to reach the main road.
-“ Go slowly, and you’ll reach it in ten minutes,” replied the lad, “but if you go fast it’ll take you half an hour or more.”
-“ Fool!” shouted the trader, and drove away at breakneck speed. Fifty metres down the road, one of the wheels struck a stone. The jolt sent the coconuts flying in all directions. It took the man a long time to gather all the coconuts and put them back in the cart. Afterwards, he climbed back wearily into the driver’s seat, and with the boy’s words ringing in his ears, drove slowly and cautiously the rest of the way.

The Wise Old Man

by kiki2u @ 2006-08-05 - 13:30:41

.A wealthy man requested an old scholar to wean his son away from his bad habits.
The scholar took the youth for a stroll through a garden. Stopping suddenly he asked the boy to pull out a tiny plant growing there. The youth held the plant between his thumb and forefinger and pulled it out. The old man then asked him to pull out a slightly bigger plant. The youth pulled hard and the plant came out, roots and all.
-"Now pull out that one," said the old man pointing to a bush. The boy had to use all his strength to pull it out.
-"Now take this one out," said the old man, indicating a guava tree. The youth grasped the trunk and tried to pull it out. But it would not budge.
-"I – It's impossible," said the boy, panting with the effort.
-"So it is with bad habits," said the sage. "When they are young it is easy to pull them out but when they take hold they cannot be uprooted."
The session with the old man changed the boy's life.

PARKING IN THE WILD WEST

by kiki2u @ 2006-08-05 - 08:54:47

.A cowboy had been in the saloon for a long time and decided that it was time, once again to head for the hills. He walked through the swing doors and immediately noticed that his horse had disappeared from the rail.
-"OK" he said, re-entering the crowded bar "I,m gonna have one more drink and if my horse ain't back by then, the same thing will happen here that happened in Dodge City."
With that several of the cowboys ran out of the saloon and within minutes one had returned to tell him that they'd found his horse for him. As he turned to leave the bartender stopped him.
-"Excuse me stranger" he said, "but what happened in Dodge City?"
The cowboy replied:
-"I had to walk home!"
