WHAT THEN MANONG?

Its my own plagiarism of the story “What then Señor?. Though author is unknown. But the story actually spirited by philosophy of Chuang Tzu.

A Manileño was at the fish port of a small coastal village of Guinayangan when a small boat with just one fisherman docked.
Inside the small boat were several large Maya Maya and Lapu Lapu. The Manileño complimented the Guinayanganin on the quality of his fish and asked how long it took to catch them.
The Fisherman replied, "Mga 3 to 4 hours lang."
The Manileño then asked, "Why didn't you stay out longer and catch more fish?"
The Fisherman said, "With this I have more than enough to support my family's needs."
The Manileño then asked, "But what do you do with the rest of your time?"
The fisherman said, "I sleep late, fish a little, play with my children, take siesta with my wife, play (Tong IT)poker, stroll into the village(Maglilimayon) each evening where I sip wine and play guitar with my tropa, I have a full and busy life."
The Manileño scoffed, " I can help you, If you don’t mind I have a Masters Degree in Business. You should spend more time fishing; and with the proceeds, buy a bigger boat: With the proceeds from the bigger boat you could buy several boats. Eventually you would have a fleet of fishing boats. Instead of selling your catch to a middleman you would sell directly to the processor; eventually opening your own cannery. You would control the product, processing and distribution. You could leave this small coastal fishing village and move to Gumaca, then Lucena and eventually Manila where you could run your ever-expanding enterprise."
The fisherman asked, "But, how long will this all take?"
The Manileño replied, "15 to 20 years. If that you already had the Masters Degree that Ive got from Ateneo. With his hand fixing his collar sarcastically"
"But what then Manong?" asked the Fisherman.
The Manileño laughed and said, "That's the best part. When the time is right you would sell your company stock to the public and become very rich, you would make millions."
"Millions?...Then what?"
The Manileño said, "Then you would retire. Move to a small coastal fishing village where you would sleep late, fish a little, play with your kids, take siesta with your wife, play poker(Tong its),stroll to the village in the evenings where you could sip wine and play your guitar with your friends."
Ganon ba Manong? . It will take 15 to 20 years.At saka yong MBA ano po ba yon nakakain? LOL! Para lang maranasan ko ang nararanasan ko na ngayon. ????

Dami pang paikot ikot. Eh ganon rin pala lahat pangarap natin eh. Mga kababayan hinay-hinay lang po. Magtira po tayo sa mga nagmamahal sa atin.

GOD TEACH US HOW TO LIVE, NOT TO MAKE A LIVING!!
