This April for the
A-Z 2020 Challenge, I have taken short stories from books of Fr Anthony De Mello – “the song of the bird” and the “prayer of the frog” . I enjoyed reading his
book and I would like to share these stories and hopefully believe that
these stories will inspire you too.
The industrialist was horrified to
find the fisherman lying beside his boat, smokng a pipe.
Industrialist: “Why aren’t you out for fishing?”
Fisherman: “Because I have caught enough
fish for the day”
Industrialist: “Why don’t you catch some more?”
Fisherman: “What would do I do with it”?
Industrialist: “Earn more money, Then you could have a Motor
fixed to your boat and go into deeper waters and catch more fish. That would
bring you money to buy nylon nets, so more fish, more money. Soon you would
have enough to buy two boats… even a fleet of boats.. Then you could be rich
like me”
Fisherman: “What would I do then”?
“Industrialist: Then you could really enjoy life”.
Fisherman: “What do you think I
am doing now?”
Thank you for reading this post:) would love to hear from you, until then,
Be Blessed & Be Happy !
