Wednesday Koan

“Hello. Can I help you?”
“I’m going somewhere.”
“I see that. Do you need some help?”
“I have a ticket.”
“And so you do. Do you have a name?”
“The ticket says I get to go.”
“And where are you going?”
“I don’t know. But I get to go.”
“I understand. Hmm. I see you’re all packed.”
“I packed it myself.”
“My child, is someone with you?”
“You are.”
“Ok, just a moment while I call someone in authority who can help.”
“What do you do then?”
“Pardon?”
“I thought you knew.”
“Knew what little one?”
“Where we’re going.”
“Where are you going?
“I have a ticket.”
“Yes, we’ve established that. “
“Do you have a ticket?”
