A
doctor, a lawyer, a little boy and a priest were out for a Sunday
afternoon flight on a small private plane. Suddenly, the plane developed
engine trouble. In spite of the best efforts of the pilot, the plane
started to go down. Finally, the pilot grabbed a parachute and yelled to
the passengers that they better jump, and he himself bailed out.
Unfortunately, there were only three parachutes remaining.
The doctor grabbed one and said “I’m a doctor, I save lives, so I must live,” and jumped out.
The
lawyer then said, “I’m a lawyer and lawyers are the smartest people in
the world. I deserve to live.” He also grabbed a parachute and jumped.
The
priest looked at the little boy and said, “My son, I’ve lived a long
and full life. You are young and have your whole life ahead of you. Take
the last parachute and live in peace.”
The
little boy handed the parachute back to the priest and said, “Not to
worry Father. The smartest man in the world just took off with my back
pack.”
Moral: Your job doesn’t always define you, but being a Good Human being Does.
