Please All and You Will Please Nothing

’Let’s go to the market and let’s sell the donkey.’ said the man.
So the man and his son took the donkey to the market.  They walked along the road and the donkey walked behind them.
A young man saw the man and his son and their donkey.  He laughed, ’You’re crazy!  Why don’t you ride on your donkey?’
’You’re right!’  said the man and he got on the donkey.  The donkey walked in front and the man’s son walked behind.
A young woman saw the man riding on the donkey and his young son walking behind.  She shouted, ’That’s not fair!  You are big and strong and that poor little boy is tired.  He must ride on the donkey. Not you!’
’You’re right!’  said the man.  So the man got off the donkey and he told his son to get on the donkey.
The donkey walked in front and the father walked behind.
A rich farmer saw the boy riding on the donkey and the father walking behind.  ’Heh!  You’ve got a donkey but you are walking.  That’s ridiculous!’
’You’re right.  It is ridiculous!’ said the man and so he got on the donkey and sat behind his son.
A poor old woman saw the man and his son riding on the donkey. ’That’s cruel!  That is so cruel!  Poor donkey!  Get off it at once!  It is the donkey’s turn.  YOU must carry the donkey!’
’Yes, you’re right.  It’s cruel!’  said the man. So the man and his son got off the donkey.
Then the man tied the donkey’s feet togther and then he got a long branch and he put it between the donkey’s legs and then the man and his son picked up the donkey and carried him to the market.
’Poor donkey!’ everbody shouted.  ’Put that donkey down!  Don’t tie its legs! Let it walk!’
’Oh, no!’ said the man.  ’We wanted to make everbody happy! Now everybody is angry!’
So the man cut the rope.  The donkey stood up and then it ran away. Try to make everybody happy and you make nobody happy!

can you guys find a deep moral value from the text?
can you guys realize how many times we got desperate for making someone feels so please?
can you guys know that acctually you dont need that act.
can you guys ever understand that we are fools for making that blind mind commanded by someone else??
kita terlalu sibuk menyenangkan orang lain.
atau bahkan kita hanya terlalu sibuk mendengarkan orang lain.
berhenti berfikir dan kemudian terlalu banyak berjalan.
one thing,
sometimes, people just want to say what they want to see. not what they mean to be.

jangan terlalu sibuk menyenangkan semua orang, karena sampai kapanpun kamu tidak akan pernah sampai ke sana.
EVERYTHING we do, is just a gun for the 'shooter'.

just happy with your self, and you are loved ^^
