Mother came home from work to find her son frantically searching the house looking for his roller blades. You see it was the first nice day of spring, and he was just dying to get out on his roller blades. The mother and son began tearing apart the house searching high and low for the elusive roller blades. They started in the garage and worked their way through all of the closets in the house eventually stopping in the attic. The roller blades seemed to have vanished into thin air.
Finally the mother looked over to her son and said “Do you remember the last place you saw your skates?”
To which the son replied “In the basement next to the furnace”.
Mom then went on to ask “Well did you try looking there?”
No said her son “The light bulbs burnt out in the basement, it was way to scary to look down there”
Mom grabbed a flashlight and headed downstairs, the roller blades were exactly where he had left them.
How many times are you looking everywhere else but the "scary place" for the answers to life's problems? You know the scary place in your head.
