A DRUNK FELL IN A HOLE AND COULDN'T GET OUT

A businessman went by. The drunk called out for help. The businessman
threw him some money and told him, "Get yourself a ladder." But the drunk
could not find a ladder in this hole he was in.

A doctor walked by. The drunk said, "Help, I can't get out." The
doctor gave him drugs and said, "Take this, it will relieve the pain," The
drunk said thanks, but when the pills ran out, he was still in the hole.

A renowned psychiatrist rode by and heard the drunk's cries for help,
He stooped and said, "How did you get there? Were you born there? Were you
put there by your parents? Tell me about yourself, it will alleviate your
sense of loneliness." So the drunk talked with him for an hour, then the
psychiatrist had to leave, but he said he'd be back next week. The drunk
thanked him, but he was still in his hole.

A priest came by. The drunk called for help. The priest gave him a
Bible and said I'll say a prayer for you. He got down on his knees and
prayed for the drunk, then left. The drunk was very grateful, he read the
Bible, but he was still stuck in that hole.

A recovering alcoholic happened to be passing by. The drunk cried out,
"Hey, help me, I'm stuck in this hole." Right away, the recovering
alcoholic jumped in the hole with him. The drunk said, "What are you doing?
Now we're both stuck here." But the recovering alcoholic said, "It's okay,
I've been here before, I know how to get out."

A man was taking his daily walk and every day he would pass this house and
on the
porch was an elderly gentleman, rocking away, and a big old hound dog the
was howling.

Every day, the man on his walk noticed and heard this old hound dog howling
and whining, every day.

Sooo, he finally stopped and asked the man on the porch; "Say, every day I
come by here and that dog is just whining and howling; is the something
wrong with him?"

"Yes". The man on the porch said. "The dog is laying on a nail."

"Well !!!" Replied the man on his walk. "Why doesn't he just get up and
move off that nail and feel better?"

The man on the porch said; "He just ain't hurting enough yet."

When the pain of letting go becomes stronger than the pain of holding
on....he is ready.
