A boy rode a donkey and the old man walked
As they went along, they passed some people who remarked "it was a shame the old man was walking and the boy was riding"
The man and boy thought maybe the critics were right, so they changed positions.
Later, they passed some people that remarked, "What a shame, he makes the little boy walk" So they both decided to walk
Soon they passed some more people who thought they were stupid to walk when they had a decent donkey to ride.
So they both rode the donkey. Now they passed some people that shamed them by saying "how awful to put such a load on a poor donkey"
The boy and man said they were probably right so they decided to carry the donkey.
As they crossed a bridge, they lost their grip on the animal and he fell into the river and drowned.
Lesson:
If you try to please everyone, you will eventually lose your ass!

very true 
my dad was giving us that example a few days ago.
...I know that which you do not know. (Quran - 1:30)...... Which then of the bounties of your Lord will you deny?...(Quran - 55:13)...
Shikra was here.

The best part of the best drug in the world isn't the high. It's the moment just before you take it. The dice are dancing on the table. Between now and the time they stop, that's the greatest high in the world
