A fisherman's tale
A boy notices a young fisherman every morning by the sea buying a new set of ropes to tie up his beautiful boat. He would continue this over and over again.
Boy: Mr. fisherman sir, why do you always spend money to buy new ropes for your boat ?
Fisherman: I'm scared the ropes will loose its strength and make my boat float away. Or worse somebody else might take it away from me .. I work very hard every day just to buy these new ropes. I hope I can afford to buy a steel anchor for it one day, so that it won't go away. The sea can be calm and can also be violent young man.. you must always hold on to something you hold dear to yourself no matter what ...
And the cycle goes on day by day.....
