Common Sense: A Lesson from a Concert

Good day, my dear readers. Today, I want to share a story from my younger days, a story that taught me a valuable lesson about common sense. It’s a tale that revolves around a concert, a night of music, and a few unexpected twists.

The Concert

It was the summer of ’69, and I was a young lad, eager to experience the world. I had managed to secure tickets to a concert featuring some of the biggest names in rock ‘n’ roll. The anticipation was palpable, and the energy, infectious.

The Lesson

As the concert progressed, the crowd grew more and more enthusiastic. In the midst of the excitement, I noticed a group of people trying to climb onto the stage. Their intentions were unclear, but their actions were dangerous, not just for them, but for everyone around them.

Now, here’s where common sense comes into play. I could have joined the group, caught up in the thrill of the moment. But I chose not to. I chose to enjoy the music from a safe distance, respecting the boundaries set by the event organizers.

Common Sense: The Unsung Hero

Common sense, my dear readers, is often overlooked in the heat of the moment. But it’s our greatest ally, our most reliable guide. It’s the voice in our head that tells us when to step back, when to say no, when to choose safety over thrill.

That night at the concert, common sense saved me from potential harm. It allowed me to enjoy the music, the atmosphere, and the company of fellow music lovers, without putting myself or others at risk.

Final Thoughts

So, the next time you find yourself in a situation where the thrill of the moment threatens to cloud your judgment, remember this story. Remember the value of common sense. It might not seem like the most exciting choice, but it’s often the wisest one.

Stay safe, stay wise, and remember to listen to that voice of common sense. It’s there for a reason.

Until next time,
