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.
