Fisherman's day 2

Good evening! Wasted almost a whole day doing .....nothing ?
To share my joy, this afternoon postman came beeping outside my gate there is a registered mail, signed as usual. It a letter for $30 voucher and there is another letter for me. From my previous employee and it is a payslip. Guess what, after i quited the company i will still be getting my flexible bonus!! LOL how wonderful life is...although is not a vast sum but it does make me feel delighted.

Anyway back to yesterday topic - fisherman.
In one of the part, there is this story about a fisherman and a business man. Not sure if anyone heard this before.
These is this business man who went for a "recharge" trip in a rural village and he saw this fisherman who is easily contented and seems to be very happy all the while. So he approached him and asked the fisherman. "Sir, what do you do for a living and what else you does beside fishing." So the fisherman told him, he loving fishing every morning he will have his breakfast with their children and he will go fishing when the children is out for school. When he have enough fishes, he will pack up and go home, they will prepare for dinner. When the sun set, he will have a scroll with the family at the beach. So the businessman ask him why he do not fish more and sell it to make money so he could have enough money for retirement, to do things that he enjoyed doing. Fisherman asked the business man:"So what i should do during my retirement? Is it to have meals with the family, scrolling on the beach with my wife and to fish everyday because i love fishing? "
The fisherman walked off, smiling to the business man.

From my point of view, this part of the story tells me. The business man has been thinking of making enough money for retirement but yet at the same time he neglected something he could look upon in life beside making money.

These years down the road, i thinking i am becoming like the fisherman, i am easily contented with things. I dropped my big dreams and goals, so would said i lose my goals some would said i am too easily contented. Some would said i should be ambitious. Everyone have an opinon on what i think.

At the same time, I became a melancholic person because the environment, the people around condemned my thinking. I thought is just blissful to be simple, is money that important? Is really owning a car that important? Is staying in a landed property?

I guessed a lot of people would want to be that fisherman but due to the environment that we are in we are forced to become a "business man". Our level of commitment, our lifestyles, almost everything we do is a big deal to us.

The author lives in Orlanda, Florida where my brother is now. I am going to find out from him how is the life of the people there.

Back to the topic, this few days although I told myself i should emptied out my mind but some stuffs just kept pondering in my head non stop.I will have another side of the coin to show.....
Whether to be a fisherman or business man, is everyone's choice. Is very individual. There is no right or wrong but do share your views with me.

Good Night! Hugzzz !!!
