A man sick of the outside world joins a temple in Tibet. The
only problem being is the fact that he can only say 2 words every five years.
The first five years he eats rice, he sleeps on a wooden bed with only
one blanket with holes in it. He tends to the fields and livestock everyday.
After 5 years the head monk walks up to him and says he can use his two
words to which he replies, "more blankets."
Now the man is warm at night
on his wooden bed with all his blankets but still only eats rice and tends to
the fields and livestock everyday.
After another 5 years the head monk
comes up to him and says he can use two more words to which he replies, "more
food."
He now sleeps on his wooden bed with all his blankets and eats
gourmet food everyday but he still has to tend to the fields and livestock
everyday.
After another five years the head monk walks up to him and
says you may use 2 words to which the man replies, "I'm leaving."
"Good," said the head monk, "all you've done is whinge since you got
here."
