Taking it easy

[Red Squirrel]

The rich industrialist from Toronto was horrified to find the Nova Scotian
fisherman lying lazily beside his boat reading Rick Warren's best-selling
book about evangelical Christianity -- 'The Purpose Driven Life.'

"Why aren't you out fishing?" said the industrialist.

"Because I have caught enough fish for the day," said the fisherman.

"Why don't you catch some more?"

"What would I do with them?"

"You could earn more money," was the industrialist's reply. "With that you
could have a motor fixed to your boat and go into deeper waters and catch
more fish. Then you would make enough to buy nylon nets. These would bring
you more fish and more money. Soon you would have enough money to own two
boats. . . maybe even a fleet of boats. Then you would be a rich man like
me."

"What would I do then?" asked the fisherman.

"Then you could really enjoy life," exclaimed the industrialist.

"What do you think I am doing right now?"
