Clapping to Keep Lions Away
Illustration★★★★It’s like this man that was walking around New York City clapping his hands over his head and someone finally asked him, why do you do that? He said, it keeps the lions away. He said, it keeps the lions away? There haven’t been any mountain lions in New York City for 150 years. He said, effective isn’t it?
Batchelor, Doug, “02 Worrying About Stuff” (AudioVerse teaching 29686).
The point
A man in New York City claps his hands to keep lions away, and when questioned about the absence of lions for 150 years, he attributes it to his effective method, humorously illustrating the irrationality and futility of worrying about non-existent problems.
