Pull in The Rope | Irresponsibility

In a fishing village that lay at the mouth of a turbulent river, a cry rang out, “Boy overboard!” A rope was brought, and the strongest swimmer in the village volunteered to rescue the drowning lad. Tying one end of the rope to his waist, he threw the other among the crowd, and plunged in. A cheer went up when he reached the boy and grasped him safely in his powerful arms. “Pull in the rope!” he shouted over the swirling waters. The villagers looked from one to another. “Who is holding the rope?” they asked. But no one was holding the rope! In the excitement of watching the rescue, the end of the rope had slipped into the water. (Source Unknown, Lou Nicholes – Missionary/Author).
