Criticism

Continued from yesterday's post, a pithy little story told by Ps Ed thats quite a keeper:

>>>>

There was once a wise pastor. One day, this pastor was approached by one of his church members. The church member earnestly said to him:

"I have only one talent, and I want to use it to serve the church"

"Oh? and what talent would that be?"

"Criticism."

"....How can I best make use of my talent?"

The wise pastor thought for a moment. Then, he turned to the church member and said:

"In the bible, the story is told of another man who also only had one talent." (nb: matt 25)

"...the man dug a hole in the ground and buried it"

"...Go and do likewise."
