You know what most people in our society, including me, seem to have in common?













We all have the same disability.

And it's an important ability not to have.






The best way to explain this disability
would probably be by telling the story
of the king and the villagers.












In the story, the villagers
all drink from a well
at the bottom of the hill.


It's become poisoned,
and they all go insane.







The king lives at the top
of the hill
and drinks from
a different well
that is safe and clean.







Eventually, all the villagers
start to notice that the king
has been acting differently,
acting kinda crazy.






They demand
that the king
stop acting crazy,
or else.
















The king soon figures out
that the only way to survive
is to go to the bottom
of the hill
and drink the water
from the villagers' well.





He drinks the water.


He goes insane.




And, the villagers
then all celebrate
the king having come
to his senses.













Editor's Note: It reminds me
of my relatives
.
