An addict fell in a hole and couldn't get out. A businessman went by. The addict called out for help. The businessman threw him some money and told him get yourself a ladder. But the addict could not find a ladder in this hole he was in.
A doctor walked by. The addict said, "Help, I can't get out." The doctor gave him drugs and said, "Take this, it will relieve the pain." The addict said thanks, but when the pills ran out, he was still in the hole.
A renowned psychiatrist rode by and heard the addicts cries for help. He stopped and said, "How did you get there? Were you born there? Were you put there by your parents? Tell me about yourself, it will alleviate your sense of loneliness." So, the addict talked with him for an hour, then the psychiatrist had to leave, but he said he'd be back next week. The addict thanked him, but he was still in his hole.
A priest came by, and the addict called for help. The priest gave him a Bible and said, "I'll say a prayer for you." He got down on his knees and prayed for the addict, then left. The addict was very grateful, he read the Bible, but he was still stuck in that hole.
A recovering addict happened to be passing by. The addict cried out, "Hey, help me, I'm stuck in this hole!" Right away, the recovering addict jumped in the hole with him. The addict said, "What are you doing? Now we're both stuck here." But the recovering addict said, "It's okay, I've been here before and I know how to get out."
"One addict helping another is without Parallel."💙💙💙
