A Joke called Human Life

So once the Moolla was standing at a crossing and there were some kids around him and the kids were pestering him. So the Moolla said no I’m going to teach them a lesson. Moolla said why don’t you all go to the marketplace run along and run hard.
The kids said why? Why should we go there Moolla?
Moolla said the mayor he has thrown a lavish party. You must go there. Here you would get nothing. There you can fill up yourself to your heart’s content. So run hard everybody.
The kids ran to the marketplace.
The Moolla smiled for some time and then the onlookers got a surprise. They found that Moolla too was running after the kids.
Somebody stopped Moolla and asked him, “Moolla, we saw you fool the kids. Now why are you running towards the mati place?”
Moolla said, “Who knows? There might actually be a party.” Moolla started hoping well so many kids are going there. What if there is actually a party? Then I would be the one who has been fooled. So why take the risk when everybody is running towards the marketplace? Let me also run towards the marketplace.

You too are running towards the marketplace in the same way. It might be a commercial marketplace. It might be a spiritual marketplace. We very well know that there is nothing there in the direction we are running towards. But what can one do with the tendency to hope? Such a joke is human life.
