The Definition of Lame

One day a guy is going for a run along the beach and finds a $1 bill. He runs a little further and finds a $10 bill. He runs further and finds a $100 bill. He runs further and faster now seeing something in the distance and he finds a bag of silver. He continues on until he finds a bag of gold. Now the hot sand is burning his feet and blisters have caused his feet to bleed, but he runs further and comes across a bag of diamonds. He keeps going, then comes to a stop as the soles of his feet wear out, bleeding to the tendons and bones.

A guy walks by him and says, "ahhh. . .what shall it profit a man to gain the whole world and lose his soles."
