Fisherman VS Shepard by Wateron: 6:34pm On Jan 10, 2015
Story story......once upon a time.......

There live two people, one a Shepard the other a fisherman. They go about their businesses as usual one day a group of children decided to judge the sincerity, love n mercy the two friend posses based on their profession.

A part of the children argued that it is better to be a fisherman on the basis that u don't have to do much work other than trowing u bait in d water n then relaxing till a gullible fish in the river try to eat up the worm on the bait and get hooked and u don't have to worry about replenishing the river that nature has its way of healing itself.

The other children argued that being a Shepard makes u a more patient, caring and understanding person. That a Shepard have to look ard for good grasses for his flocks to feed on, he has to protect his flock from predators, he has to provide water, he need to understand that his flocks needs rest, he has to walk ard with his flocks in the rain, Sun and other harsh weather condition. Unlike a Fisher man who deceives the fish into swallowing the bait with a worm, he never cares about d welfare of the fishes, he will not go to d river to feed d fishes without the intention of killing them, he never protects the fishes from being preyed on. All he wants is his satisfaction.

In the end 80% of the children agreed that the shepherd will make a better person as compared to the fisherman.

Do you agree?
