Enjoy your life at every moment!

Is the title of today's inspirational message.

Once a fisherman was sitting near seashore,
under the shadow of a tree smoking his beedi.
Suddenly a rich businessman passing by
approached him and enquired as to why he was
sitting under a tree smoking and not working.
To this the poor fisherman replied that he had
caught enough fishes for the day.
Hearing this the rich man got angry and said:
Why don’t you catch more fishes instead of
sitting in shadow wasting your time?
Fisherman asked: What would I do by catching
more fishes?
Businessman: You could catch more fishes, sell
them and earn more money, and buy a bigger
boat.
Fisherman: What would I do then?
Businessman: You could go fishing in deep
waters and catch even more fishes and earn
even more money.
Fisherman: What would I do then?
Businessman: You could buy many boats and
employ many people to work for you and earn
even more money.
Fisherman: What would I do then?
Businessman: You could become a rich
businessman like me.
Fisherman: What would I do then?
Businessman: You could then enjoy your life
peacefully.
Fisherman: Isn’t that what I am doing now?
Moral – You don’t need to wait for tomorrow to
be happy and enjoy your life. You don’t even
need to be more rich, more powerful to enjoy
life. LIFE is at this moment, enjoy it fully.
As some great men have said “My riches
consist not in extent of my possessions but in
the fewness of my wants”.
