There’s the story of the stagecoach driver who was delivering a box full
of gold…he was not to stop for anything, when he picked up a passenger walking
through the desert trail…the passenger told him that he was on his way to pick
up a large amount of gold…but that his horse had thrown a shoe and he had to
take to walkin’…the man said he would share the gold with the driver if the
driver would take him to town…the driver envisioning riches said he would…just
before he got to town, the passenger pulled a gun on the driver and took over
coach…he made the driver get off and he pulled away with the gold the man had
been delivering…the man walked forlornly into town…he had let his vision of
riches get the best of him.
