A farmer had a dog who used to sit by the roadside waiting for vehicles to come around. As soon as one came he would run down the road, barking and trying to overtake it. One day a neighbor asked the farmer “Do you think your dog is ever going to catch a car?” The farmer replied, “That is not what bothers me. What bothers me is what he would do if he ever caught one.” Many people in life behave like that dog who is pursuing meaningless goals.
Life is hard by the yard,
but by the inch,
it’s a cinch.

Nice writeup
YES, as human we pursue meaningless goals unknowingly
Dts why many run afta shadow @ d end they bcom loosers
U don’t know my goal. Don’t say is meaningless
why most pple pursue meaninless goals is basically some of those goals appears to be meaninfull
Each goal we are pursuing in life is meaningless until God enable us 2 archieve our goal,then it wil be meaninful,bt a toad doesn’t run in a day time 4 nth. Dat dog knws wot he pursuing.
Of course, in the real world, that doesn t often happen, and Petry does an amazing job depicting real life in the real Harlem of the 1940s.
