A
True Friend
A man
was walking down the
street one day and fell into a hole. The hole was so deep that he
couldn't get
out. This made him very sad and upset.
A doctor came walking
along and
he called up to the doctor, "Hey!
I've fallen into this hole! Can you help me?" The doctor
wrote
out a prescription and tossed it into the hole.
Then a minister came
walking
along and he called up to the
minister, "Hey! I've fallen into this hole! Can you help
me?" The minister wrote out a prayer and tossed it into the hole.
Then a friend came
walking
along and he called up to his friend, "Hey, Joe!
I've fallen into this hole! Can you help me?" The friend
then jumped into the hole with him.
The first man said, "Are
you
nuts? Why'd you jump in here with me? Now we're both stuck
in here!"
"My friend," Joe replied,
"I've
been here, too, and I know the way out."
Please take a moment ...
right
now ... and look around you.
Who do you
know who's in a hole? A friend? A family member? A
co-worker? A neighbor? Do they have a problem in their life
that you've
already solved? Or are they striving for a goal you've already
attained? Why not jump into that hole with them and show them the
way out?
Whether people are struggling or striving they all want the same thing
... a
friend who'll offer a helping hand.
Make it an AWESOME day
... for
you AND someone else!
