The fence in a farmers field is broken during a violent storm. ‘Bad luck’ his neighbor exclaims.

‘Good luck, bad luck, who can say?’ Replies the farmer.

A wild horse wanders though the gap in the fence and decides to stay. ‘Good luck’ his neighbor exclaims.

‘Good luck, bad luck, who can say?’ Replies the farmer.

The farmers son is thrown whilst riding the horse. He breaks his leg badly. ?’Bad luck’ his neighbor exclaims.

‘Good luck, bad luck, who can say?’ Replies the farmer.

The local?militia?come to take the boy to fight in their war but leave him behind due to his broken leg. ?’Good luck’ his neighbor exclaims.

    I had to read this three times before I got the joke. Funny!

    I guess the neighbor had no business of his own to tend to. He always seemed to be around to tend to the farmer’s affairs. LOL

    Good point, Sammie! If I was the farmer, I would build a fence to keep the neighbor away.

    ?Good luck, bad luck, who can say?? This is true. What one sees is a blessing can be a curse to someone else.

    Ancient Chinese fable…you never known what’s going to happen next. Don’t be sad and don’t be too happy, you need tranquility.

    Good story!

    The people who I admire most usually are able to take a bad situation and turn it around. The people who I see struggle to find happiness are the ones who dwell on a bad situation and admit defeat without a fight. They do not see the positives in the negative.
