PERSONAL PERCEPTION

PERSONAL PERCEPTION

Different people have different perception. One
man's meat could be another man's poison. A couple
bought a donkey from the market. On the way home,a
boy commented, "Very stupid. Why neither of them
ride on the donkey?"Upon hearing that, the husband
let the wife ride on the donkey. He walked besides
them. Later, an old man saw it and commented, "The
husband is the head of family. How can the wife ride
on the donkey while the husband is on foot?" Hearing
this, the wife quickly got down and let the husband
ride on the donkey.

Further on the way home, they met an old Lady. She
commented, "How can the man ride on the donkey but
let the wife walk. He is no gentleman."
The husband thus quickly asked the wife to join him
on the donkey. Then, they met a young man. He
commented, "Poor donkey, how can you hold up the
weight of two persons. They are cruel to you."
Hearing that, the husband and wife immediately
climbed down from the donkey and carried it on their
shoulders.

It seems to be the only choice left. Later, on a
narrow bridge, the donkey was frightened and
struggled. They lost their balance and fell into the
river. You can never have everyone praise you, nor
will everyone condemn you. Never in the past, not at
present, and never will be in the future.

Thus, do not be too bothered by others words if our conscience is
clear..
