The concept is good but it is really a stretch of the imagination or common sense to believe that if each person picked up a balloon and tried to find the person that it belonged to they would all have their balloon in five minutes. I really cannot believe that actually happened. I think someone was trying to make a point but just got carried away with the actual logistics. Perhaps if there were a limited number but not for the amount of balloons in the picture. Hyperbole comes to mind.
I agree, and I didn't follow it through. There are a lot of unknowns. Was it a real story, what was the size of the class and the number of students involved. Just thought it was a great message.

You are taking it too literally. It's the message. You can find happiness is in helping others.
Yeah it just seemed to be presented as a real story or event, especially with the picture and all.

It was!...just as an allegorical story.
