:Gordillo
.There's an old story about a Chinese farmer who buys a horse
.A short while later the horse runs away
:His neighbor says
"Oh, that's bad news"
:The farmer responds
"Good news, bad news, who can say?
l"
Three days later, the horse returns
.and with it, a herd of wild horses
His neighbor, seeing his good
.fortune, congratulates him on the good news
The farmer responds, "Good
news, bad news, who can say?"
l
.The farmer gifts one of the horses to his son
.His son rides it, only to be thrown from its back
.badly breaking his leg
"That's bad news"
says the neighbor
:The farmer replies
"?Good news, bad news, who can say"
Days later, the emperor summons
.every able-bodied young man to fight in the war
.The farmer's son is spared
!What good news
Good news, bad news, who can say?
l
It all depends where the story ends
And that is the only thing in life we can predict
The only thing we truly know
Everybody's story ends the same way
