Life is Like a Buffet

Life is Like a Buffet

"An old man went into a restaurant one day for his meal. He sat at an empty table and waited for someone to take his order.

After half an hour, still nobody came. He was getting impatient and decided to approach a waitress walking past his table. He asked, 'Can I make my order?' The waitress looked at him in a puzzled manner. She replied, 'But, Sir, we serve buffet here. You will have to go to the tables in the centre of the restaurant to get your food. You can take any food that is on the serving tables.' 'When you have finished your meal, the bill will be brought to you,' added the waitress. After which, she walked away and carried on her business.

Having realised his folly, the old man stood up and walked towards the serving tables in the middle of the restaurant.

Lesson: Life is like a buffet. You can have anything you want as long as you are willing to pay the price, even success. But you will not get anything if you sit around and wait to be served. You'll have to get up and go get it yourself!"
