A wise man was a participating in a conversation. He contributed by telling the group a joke. All those present were highly amused and appreciated the humour. After a while, he narrated the joke again.This time the response was more tempered. After some time, he said it the third time and it evoked barely any response. When he tried repeating it a fourth time, a member of the group burst out: "Why are you repeating the joke so many times? It's no longer amusing; it's irritating!"
The wise man responded: "You can't laugh at the same joke again and again, but why do you keep crying over the same thing over and over gain?"
