In another time in my life, I was acquainted with two individuals who everyone in their lives had come to know as Sad Sack and The Grump. They worked the line at a greasy spoon and called in sick at least once a week, always on the same day as each other, to stay home, play cards, and complain.
“You’re cheating,” says one.
“You too,” says the other.
And it goes like this till one day, Sad Sack gets tired of being a sad sack, goes to The Grump and says, “We can’t keep living like this.”
“Why not?” Says The Grump.
“It makes me miserable,” says Sad Sack.
“You were always miserable,” says the Grump, “or at least that’s what you always told me.”
“Well I don’t want to be miserable any more,” grumbles Sad Sack.
“What do you want to be?” asks The Grump.
Sad Sack had never thought of that. So Sad Sack and The Grump called in sick and played cards and, that night, when The Grump wasn’t around Sad Sack called his Mother.
“Mom, what did I want to be when I grew up?”
And Sad Sack’s mother just laughed at him till he hung up.
Now, over the next few days, The Grump had to listen to Sad Sack complain all day about how much he was complaining, so The Grump figured he’d help.
“Hey, Sad Sack, I think I figured out how you can be less miserable.”
“Really?”
“Sure. You ready?”
But the Grump didn’t wait for a response. He just pushed Sad Sacks face into the deep fryer till he stopped twitching.
When they pulled him out, he was smiling, and nobody in that kitchen called in sick any more.
From the seed of humility, all else grows.
