[MD] Question?

I like this Zen story...

---

A farmer's horse ran away. His neighbors gathered upon hearing the 
news and said sympathetically, "That's such bad luck."

"Maybe," the farmer replied.

The horse returned on his own the next morning, and brought seven 
wild horses with it. "Look how many more horses you have now," the 
neighbors exclaimed. "How lucky!"

"Maybe," the farmer replied.

The next day, the farmer's son attempted to ride one of the wild 
horses, was thrown, and broke his leg. "How awful," the neighbors 
said. "It looks like your luck has turned for the worse again."

The farmer simply replied, "Maybe."

The following day, military officers came to town to conscript young 
men into the service. Seeing the son's broken leg, they rejected him. 
The neighbors gathered round the farmer to tell him how fortunate he was.

"Maybe," said the farmer.
