“The child who wanted to be a fisherman”
Long ago, very long ago in a village of fishermen, lived an orphan name Sam who was banned from the village because he was the only survivor of a deadly disease which killed many people including Sam’s family. The village chief did a tourney in the village and recorded the number of dead people. He made a list of the house that were affected by that epidemic disease. Thus all the number of dead people were recorded, when the chief arrived in Sam’s house, he was sitting in a bench and playing with an innocent mind. He was accused for sending the epidemic and was banned from the village. He lived in a cave on the other side of the village. He learned how to live by himself and every day, he kept on watching youth fishermen go to the river with their fishing net. He stayed in his cave waiting for the fishers to come back from their expedition early in the morning. This was the only thing that made him forget his melancholy. He was dreaming about the day when he will also be going down the hill with his net on the arm and going to fish and coming back with a net full of fishes of all kind. He aways believed in his dream, in the evening, he watch the sky full of stars full with dreams. He later go back to sleep in his loneliness. At the age of 14, he made his first net and went down the hill to fish. He stayed at the edges of the river, he did not catch anything for his first try. He decide to come back the next day and try, unfortunately he still did not catch any fish. He did not give up and kept on trying. Sam questioned his method of fishing and decided to change it. He invented a fishing cane and became the most popular fisherman of his village.
