The tyrannical King was mad at Mulla Nasruddin for being unable to entertain him. He shouted that he would cut off Mulla’s head. Mulla Nasruddin stepped forward and said, “I will do something that will surely entertain you.”
“What will you do?” asked the King.
“I will make my donkey fly!”
“If you fail to make your donkey fly, you will be dead,” said the King.
“I accept the challenge,” said Mulla. “But I will need ten years to do it.” The King agreed to give Mulla that much time.
When the King left the court, all the friends of Mulla crowded around him. They said, “How can you make such a promise? You are a fool. The King will surely cut off your head!”
Mulla answered, “Look here. Ten years is a long time. By that time the King may be dead. Or, I may die anyway. Or, who knows, my donkey may fly!”
It speaks volumes for the person who is always in the present.
This how politicians work. This applies to todays pandemic solutions too.!!!
Very Nice.
