The Brass Ring!
Have you ever heard of the Brass Ring?
Long time ago on the Merry-Go-Round they had set-up on a par a semi brass ring
and the object was as the merry go round came around you were suppose to grab
the ring. If you got it, well you would win either money or life time rides on
the Merry-Go-Round.
But
what people didn’t know was the ring was place strategy
just far enough away so it was unreachable. So no matter how hard you tried to
reach out and grab it, it was impossible to grab. This was a marketing tool
used to get you to buy more rides.
Now
the price of a ticket to ride as only ten cents but that ten cents would turn
into a dollar and than two dollars before they would give up. Think about it,
ten cents or one dollar was a lot of money back in the thirties and forties.
Why, the premium for a life insurance police was ten cents a month for a life
insurance policy.
A
fellow wanting to impress a girl would spend his whole weeks pay check just for
one more try. Most of the time He would fail and get off the ride, broke,
disappointed, and angry that he had failed.
How
many times in life do we try to grab that brass ring? Buying a lottery ticket
every week for that one chance it will be the winner! The numbers come up and
no, it wasn’t the right one. The next week, next month, the next year, maybe it’ll
be the right one. But for most it never comes.
Well, don’t be
discouraged, one day that ticket might just win. Maybe you’ll be the one to
grab that brass ring. When, the time is right, and the planets line up in the
right order it just might be possible. As I tell my children, never give up, try,
try, and try again.
“May God Bless!”
