Something Fishy
Far away in the tropical waters of the Caribbean, two prawns were swimming
around in the sea - one named Justin & the other named Christian.
The prawns were constantly being harassed & threatened by sharks that
inhabited the area. Finally one day Justin said to Christian, "I'm fed up
with being a prawn, I wish I was a shark, then I wouldn't have any worries
about being eaten."
A large mysterious Cod suddenly appeared & said, "Your wish is granted" & lo &
behold, Justin turned into a shark. Horrified, Christian immediately swam
away, afraid of being eaten by his old mate.
Time passed (as it invariably does) & Justin found life as a shark boring &
lonely. All his old mates simply swam away whenever he came close to them.
Justin didn't realise that his new menacing appearance was the cause of his
sad plight.
While swimming alone one day he saw the mysterious Cod again & he thought
perhaps the mysterious fish could change him back into a prawn. He
approached the Cod & begged to be changed back, & lo & behold, he found
himself suddenly turned back into a prawn.
With tears of joy in his tiny little eyes Justin swam back to his friends &
bought them all a cocktail. (The punch line does not involve a prawn
cocktail - it's much worse).
Looking around the gathering at the reef he realised he couldn't see his
old pal. "Where's Christian?" he asked.
"He's at home, still distraught that his best friend changed sides to the
enemy & became a shark",came the reply.
Eager to put things right again & end the mutual pain & torture, he set off
to Christian's abode. As he opened the coral gate, memories came flooding
back. He banged on the door & shouted, "It's me, Justin, your old friend,
come out & see me again."
Christian replied,"No way man, you'll eat me. You're now a shark, the
enemy, & I'll not be tricked into being your dinner."
Justin cried back "No, I'm not. That was the old me. I've changed...."
Wait for it now.........
"I've found Cod. I'm a Prawn again Christian".

Watch nature, because it’s our greatest teacher, it moves and flows and moves on again. We can never be free until we disengage, so allow life to flow as you find it. The way it is, is the way it is.

I was going to mention the blonde who bought a set of water skis but never got to use them, because she couldn't find a lake with a slope.
But I wont.
