The story of fish release.

There was a young priest who stayed with his master, one day he told his master that he wanted to go home. The master noticed that he looked sad, he’d survive not more than 7 days. But the master didn’t say it. The young priest said goodbye. Half way home he found a dry river, but not totally dry, just little water left. There were 5 fishes suffering. He felt sorry for them and put them in the bucket. Then let them go in the other river. Those fishes survived and he went home.

7 days later he went back to his master. The master was curious why he was still alive. Then he asked "why did you live longer?" The young said "I saw fishes dying on the way home. With sorrow I helped them and let them go. That’s all I did. I didn’t think it’d help me that much."

May be that was the reason that make him live longer.


This story teaches that: “When you help others you actually help your self.”
