Believe and Trust

The Banana Speaks

Believe and Trust

I was watching Cable when i came across the last show with Jay leno
He was interviewing the Miami Heats Head Coach Pat Railey
Pat Railey told a short story which i feel is very enlighting and i would like to share to all who reads my blog.

A Long time, a go there was a famous tight ropewalker that tied a rope across the Niagara Falls. He then claimed that he could cross the falls and even do stunts on the rope while crossing it.

The people around the falls thinks he was crazy and thought that he was going to fall to his death.

But in the end he proved them wrong by crossing the ropes and even jumping on the rope doing a few stunts.

When he went across the rope, everyone cheered.

He then asked the audience
"Do you believe that I am able to walk across the rope again doing the same things over again?"

The audience replied
"We believe you!"

"Do you believe I can repeat the stunts over and over again"

"Yes we believe you!"

He then asked another question

"Well do you believe that I can carry a barrel and balance it with me across the rope still doing all the same things?"

"Yes Yes we believe you!"

Finally he said

"Good! Then you get into the barrel"



The moral of this short story is that

"Believe in someone or something is one issue
Trusting is another."
