A man flying in a hot air balloon suddenly realizes he’s lost.
A man flying in a hot air balloon suddenly realizes he’s lost.
He reduces height and spots a man
down below. He lowers the balloon further and shouts to get directions,
"Excuse me, can you tell me where I am?"
The man below says: "Yes.
You're in a hot air balloon, hovering 30 feet above this field."
"You must work in
politics," says the balloonist.
"I do" replies the man.
"How did you know?"
"Well," says the
balloonist, "everything you have told me is technically correct, but It's
of no use to anyone."
The man below replies, "You
must work in media."
"I do," replies the
balloonist, "But how'd you know?"*
"Well", says the man,
"you don’t know where you are or where you’re going, but you expect me to
be able to help.
You’re in the same position you were
before we met, but now it’s my fault.
Matthew 23
Then
Jesus said to the crowds and to his disciples: 2 “The teachers of the law and the Pharisees sit in
Moses’ seat. 3 So
you must be careful to do everything they tell you. But do not do what they do,
for they do not practice what they preach. 4 They tie up heavy, cumbersome loads and put them
on other people’s shoulders, but they themselves are not willing to lift a
finger to move them.
