"Fortunate Fisherman" ..


Early morning Before sunrise, a fisherman arrived at a river. On the banks he stumbled against something and found it to be a small sack of stones. He picked up the sack, and putting his net aside, sat down on the bank to await the sunrise. he was waiting for dawn to break in order to start his days work.

Lazily he picked a stone out of the bag and threw it into the quite river...then he cast another stone and then another...in the silence of the early morning he liked the splashing sound, so he kept tossing the stones into the water one by one...

Slowly the sun Rose, it became light. by that he had thrown all the stones away except one. ;the last stone lay in his palm. he heart almost failed him, he was breathless when he say by the daylight what he held in hand. It was a Diamond !!
he had thrown a whole sack of them away; this was the last piece in his hand. he shouted. he cried. he had accidently stumbled upon so much wealth that his life would hav been enriched many times over. but in the darkness , unkowingly, he had thrown it all away....

"In the way that fisherman was fortunate, still one diamond was left, the light had dawned before he had thrown the last diamond too.. Genrally, People are not evn that fortunate. their whole life passes and the sun never rises....the morning never comes, and they have thorwn away all of lief's diamonds thinking they were pebbles...........
