In today’s day and age, during the hustle and bustle of life, it is easy forΒ people to criticize and accuse others without stopping, asking questions and discovering the true characteristics of an individual. We all need to take the time to find the truth about people and situations that sometimes cross our paths. Assuming what a person or a situation might be like can sometimes lead to an embarrassing or negative result. Today’s short little story is a great illustration of this thought: Never Assume!Β
John was told that a twin-engine plane would be waiting at the airport.
Arriving at the airport he spotted a plane warming up outside the hanger.
He jumped in, said βLets goβ.
The pilot taxied and took off.
Once in the air John told the pilot: βFly low over the valley so I can take pictures of the fire on the hillβ
Pilot : Why.?
John : Because Iβm the photographer for a television show. I need to get some close up shots.
Pilot was strangely silent for a moment, then he stammered βSo, what Youβre telling me is . . . Youβre not my flying instructorβ?

ALWAYS ASK….NEVER ASSUME.!
