Maybe
Once upon a time, there lived a farmer. He had a horse. One day the horse ran away. The neighbors came to console him for his bad luck. He answered: "Maybe".
The horse came back the next day, leading 6 wild horses with it. The neighbors came to congratulate him on such good luck. The farmer said: "Maybe".
The day after, his son tried to saddle and ride on one of the wild horses, but he fell down and broke his leg. Once again the neighbors came to share that misfortune. The farmer said: "Maybe".
The day after, soldiers came to conscript the youth of the village, but they left the farmer's son because of his broken leg. When the neighbors came to congratulate, the farmer said again: "Maybe".
----------
The moral of the story is- Good luck or bad luck comes one after another. Nothing is constant in this world. Your happiness and sorrows, good health and bad health- All are like the castle of sand. Change is the law of the universe. No one can predict the future. What seems good for you now, may result in something bad in near future. Again, what seems bad for you now, may result in something good in the future.
