A week later the horse returned with a herd of wild horses from the hills and this time the neighbours congratulated the farmer on his good luck.
His reply was, 'Good luck? Bad luck? Who knows?'
Then, when the farmer's son was attempted to tame one of the wild horses, he fell off its back and broke his leg. Everyone thought this very bad luck. Not the farmer, whose only reaction was, 'Bad luck? Good luck? Who knows?'
Some weeks later the army marched into the village and conscripted every able-bodied youth they found there. When they saw the farmer's son with his broken leg they let him off. Now was that good luck? Bad luck? Who knows?

To talk about bad luck or good luck is not necessary for me.In fact, I can say that I don't totally believe on bad luck or good luck because it's always said after one thing already happened. Like the son of the farmer, when he fell of the house's back and broke his leg, he was said to have bad luck, and when the army saw him broke his leg and let him off, he was said to have good luck. But before those things happened why no one could tell that he was going to have bad luck or he was going to have good luck?
this a good one of all story why I said that because this story tough me that the people in the world must not had a good luck or bad luck every time. they will have a good it the future or one day.For my idea we should try to do and should not waiting your lucky
All of the people who know when we have good luck or bad luck and who can plan. we can loss some thing or found some thing it a reason that i think this story is a best one all of us can not prepaid it.
After i read this story,it shown me two main point are good luck and bad luck in one sentence said that the house's back and broke his leg, he was said bad luck, and when the army saw him broke his leg and let him off, he was said to have good luck. it really true bad and good happened very day ,but all people didn't know before example traffic accident sometime can make all of us broke leg or hand that we did not know first, if we do not meet traffic accident form time to time from day to day it is good. let me sad good luck or bad luck who some know so we should do good deed very day do not meet bad luck only meet good luck forever.
Bad luck and good luck we really don't know how many time that we can have, and when happen. But I just know that everyone should be have bad luck and good luck in our life.
This story provide a lot of good things to practice. We don't know what day is good luck or bad luck? We just know if we help someone, good luck will came another day. So I believe that human destiny should be combined with good or bad luck.
So great story to learn from. Life is changing. Nothing remains stable. It's uncontrollable changing. However, the change itself cannot define whether it's good or bad luck. So, what defines then? It's us. It's nonsense to say this's bad luck, this good luck, in a very mediate response, but it's priceless for us to use up every event of life to be the useful and positive. Be positive!
