Story A Confusing Experience There are two people going on a trip from one town to another. These people are a man and his young son. The man and his son have a donkey. They cannot decide who should ride on the donkey. First, they decide that the boy should ride on the donkey. As they pass an old lady they hear her saying, “What a lazy boy; he should walk and let his father ride.” The father and the boy change places, and they continue their trip. They pass another group of people. They hear them saying, “What a terrible man, he is big and strong. He should walk and let his little son ride.”

The man and the boy feel confused, so they both decide to ride on the donkey. As they pass another group of people they hear a man saying, “What an abuse, two people on one little donkey.” They don’t know what to do, so they both decide to carry the donkey. As they pass another group of people, they hear the people laughing at them and saying, “They are carrying the donkey when the donkey should carry them.” Totally confused, they both decide at the same time that they should tie the donkey to a post and leave it at home. Now, they are happy because they can both walk in peace.
