Lighthouse

Once upon a time, there were one old man and one son who lived in the sea shore. One day they went out fishing. On their way, they met strong storm, blowing their small boat to one deserted island. Boat crashed. They could not be back any more to shore. They were compelled to live on the island and found their ways of living there. Years past, no one discovered them.
One day, government sent workers to build a lighthouse on the island. After it completed the old man wished to take the job of the lighthouse. Government agreed.
Further years slipped by, the old man died and the young man took over his father job. Again, one day, a big ship, in order to escape a storm, anchored his ship in the island. The captain, finding this young man very diligent, asked him to work on his ship, but he refused saying that he liked this job in island which could serve thousands of ships passing by in a year.
From here, we can see everybody has his liking to work for his job. This young man found a meaningful job.
