Just Walk

Written by

A group of tourists got turned around on a backroad and spotted an old local sitting by the path. They stopped to ask for directions and how long it would take to get to the train station.

The old man simply pointed toward the horizon.

“Alright, but how long will it take?” one of the tourists asked. “An hour? More?”

“Just walk,” the old man said flatly.

“Yeah, we’re going to walk,” the tourist replied, a bit annoyed. “But we need to know the timeframe. How long will it take us to get there?”

“Just walk,” the old man repeated.

“Look, can you answer a simple question or not?” the tourist snapped, convinced the old man was losing his grip.

Thinking the man was just senile, the group turned around and started walking away. They had only gone about fifty yards when they heard the old man shout after them:

“It’ll take you about an hour and a half!”

The tourists stopped and yelled back, “Why couldn’t you just tell us that in the first place?”

“Because,” the old man yelled, “I had to see how fast you walk!”
