To the Top
There was a pheasant sitting on a branch,trying to get to the top of the tree, but just didn’t have the energy to get to the very top. He looked down and there was this bull right below him at the base of the tree. The bull looked up and could see the frustration in the pheasant’s eyes, and said, “Whats Wrong?” The pheasant told him he needed to get to the top, but just didn’t have enough strength. The bull, trying to be heplful, told the pheasant, “Come on down here and have some bull dung, it will give you energy.”
The pheasant figuring he didn’t have anything to lose, dropped down to the heap of the bull dung, next to the bull and took a few bites. He flew up to a higher limb on the tree, but couln’t quite get to the top. The pheasant figured, “Well it got me here, if I have some more, maybe I can get to the top.”
So, he hopped back down, had some more bull dung, and this time flew right to the tippy top of the tree. Right then, the farmer who owned the land stepped out on his porch saw the pheasant sitting on top of the tree, grabbed his shotgun, took aim and shot the pheasant dead.
The moral of this story is… bullshit may get you to the top, but it won’t keep you there!!!
