Far away in the tropical waters of the Caribbean, two prawns were
swimming around in the sea, one called Justin and the other called
Christian. The prawns were constantly being harassed and
threatened by sharks that inhabited the area.
Finally one day Justin said to Christian, "I'm fed up with being a
prawn; I wish I was a shark, and then I wouldn't have any worries
about being eaten."
A large mysterious cod appeared and said, "Your wish is granted."
Low and behold, Justin turned into a shark.
Horrified, Christian immediately swam away, afraid of being eaten
by his old mate. Time passed (as it invariably does) and Justin
found life as a shark boring and lonely. All his old mates simply
swam away whenever he came close to them. Justin didn't realize
that his new menacing appearance was the cause of his sad plight.
While swimming alone one day he saw the mysterious cod again and he
thought perhaps the mysterious fish could change him back into a
prawn. He approached the cod and begged to be changed back, and,
low and behold, he found himself turned back into a prawn.
With tears of joy in his tiny little eyes Justin swam back to his
friends and bought them all a cocktail (the punch line does not
involve a prawn cocktail - it's much worse). Looking around the
gathering at the reef he realized he couldn't see his old pal.
"Where's Christian?" he asked.
"He's at home, still distraught that his best friend changed sides
to the enemy & became a shark," came the reply.
Eager to put things right again and end the mutual pain and
torture, He set off to Christian's abode. As he opened the coral
gate, memories came flooding back. He banged on the door and
shouted: "It's me, Justin, your old friend, come out and see me
again."
Christian replied, "No way man, you'll eat me. You're now a shark,
the enemy, and I'll not be tricked into being your dinner."
Justin cried back "No, I'm not. That was the old me. I've
changed........."
