Kierkegaard:
A fire broke out backstage in a theatre. The clown came out to warn the public; they thought it was a joke and applauded. He repeated it; the acclaim was even greater. I think that's just how the world will come to an end: to general applause from wits who believe it's a joke.

Well, I have two favorite parables but my favorite parable is, The Sower ~ Matthew 13:3~8.
And he spoke to them at length in parables, saying:
"A sower went out to sow.
4 And as he sowed, some seed fell on the path, and birds came and ate it up.
5 Some fell on rocky ground, where it had little soil. It sprang up at once because the soil was not deep,
6 and when the sun rose it was scorched, and it withered for lack of roots.
7 Some seeds fell among thorns, and the thorns grew up and choked it.
8 But some seed fell on rich soil, and produced fruit, a hundred or sixty or thirty-fold."
I love this parable because it is saying, that we are the seeds and some of us fall down out of Gods hand, and go to the wrong path.
So when we fall off His hand we think we can handle the hard things but really we can't, that is why God was still holding on to us.

I am the most humble person I know and I can unequivocally state humility is overrated. Having said that you are totally humble bragging be better Jeebus wouldn't like this.

Hans Christian Anderson and Kierkegaard seem to have been acquaintances.

I used an emote to indicate I got the joke.......Hence my reply to use another parable to make a comparable for you.
