Two men were digging a ditch on a very hot day. One said to the other, "Why are we down in this hole digging a ditch when our boss is standing up there in the shade of a tree?" "I don't know," responded the other. "I'll ask him."
So he climbed out of the hole and went to his boss. "Why are we digging in the hot sun and you're standing in the shade?" "Intelligence," the boss said. "What do you mean, �intelligence'?"
The boss said, "Well, I'll show you. I'll put my hand on this tree and I want you to hit it with your fist as hard as you can." The ditch digger took a mighty swing and tried to hit the boss' hand. The boss removed his hand and the ditch digger hit the tree. The boss said, "That's intelligence!"
The ditch digger went back to his hole. His friend asked, "What did he say?" "He said we are down here because of intelligence." "What's intelligence?" said the friend. The ditch digger put his hand on his face and said, "Take your shovel and hit my hand."
should I ditch going to college and move to paradise?
If you where to ditch going to college, take some money and live in the Caribbean. Selling shirts on some beach in the Caribbean Islands, sipping an ice cold drink under the hot sun, relaxing on the hot sand with the surf breaking on the beach. Lighting up a joint at night and partying with the locals as well!
Or would you rather end up graduating college and becoming another drone in the corporate world? By doing this you would end up getting caught up with the petty things in life which don't matter.
What do you think I should do next year after I graduate high school, pack my bags and travel the world, and end up living in some exotic place, or go to college?
I'll be seeing you at McDonalds in a few years, after your little trip to paradise. Don't worry, I hear that the demand for cashiers is very high.
