Lighthouse

Once upon a time, an old man together with his son always went fish. One day, while in fishing they met storm which blew their boat to a deserted island. Boat was crashed. They had to live in inland by fishing and farming. For few years, nobody had come to rescue them. They also felt to live in island was a good life.
One day government sent people to the island to set a lighthouse for ship passing by to see in the night.
They offered to government, they liked to be watcher of lighthouse. Of course, government accepted.
Time went by, many years passed the old man died. His son took this job to do the same. Work as his father.
Once day, a big merchant ship anchored in the island. The captain had good impression of this young man and asked him to work on his ship. He refused.
The young man liked to work in the island even under small salary. He thought his job was what he liked and also he was happy to serve people.
