Helping others live life to the fullest
“To live is the rarest thing in the world – most people exist – that is all.” – Oscar Wilde
A farmer had an old mule that he had named Slim that had helped him faithfully for many years. One morning the farmer woke up thinking about old Slim and decided that he would put him out to pasture to enjoy the rest of his life. So the farmer put on his clothes, went out to the barn and looked at old Slim and said, “You’ve been a good mule and I’m going to put you out to pasture. From this day on all you have to do is eat and sleep.” The farmer removed the mule’s halter, opened the gate and slapped the mule on the backside and told him, “Okay Slim, get out of here.”
For the next few days the farmer would see the mule wandering the pasture from time to time, but a week or so later he didn’t see the mule anywhere. He searched his farm from end to end but still couldn’t find Slim. There was an old, abandoned well in the far corner of his farm so he decided to search for Slim there.
