| The Joke |
Many years ago, a fisherman's wife blessed
her husband with twin sons. They loved the children very much, but
couldn't think of what to name their children. Finally, after
several
days, the fisherman said, "Let's not decide on names right now.
If we
wait a little while, the names will simply occur to us."
After several weeks had passed, the fisherman and his wife noticed
a
peculiar fact. When left alone, one of the boys would also turn
towards
the sea, while the other boy would face inland. It didn't
matter which
way the parents positioned the children, the same child
always faced
the same direction. "Let's call the boys Towards and
Away," suggested
the fisherman. His wife agreed, and from that
point on, the boys were
simply known as Towards and Away.
The
years passed and the lads grew tall and strong. The day came when
the aging fisherman said to his sons, "Boys, it is time that learned
how to make a living from the sea." They provisioned their ship,
said
their goodbyes, and set sail for a three month voyage.
The three months passed quickly for the fisherman's wife, yet the
ship
had not returned. Another three months passed, and still no ship.
Three
whole years passed before the greiving woman saw a lone man
walking
towards her house. She recognized him as her husband. "My
goodness! What
has happened to my darling boys?" she cried.
The ragged fisherman began to tell his story: "We were just barely one
whole day out to see when Towards hooked into a great fish. Towards
fought long and hard, but the fish was more than his equal. For a
whole
week they wrestled upon the waves without either of them
letting up. Yet
eventually the great fish started to win the battle, and
Towards was
pulled over the side of our ship. He was swallowed
whole, and we never
saw either of them again."
"Oh dear,
that must have been terrible! What a huge fish that must of
been!"
"Yes, it was, but you should have seen the one that got
Away...." |
