"The Burning Hut"
One day, a sailor got tossed at sea after a strong storm blew him overboard. Luckily he got washed ashore on an uninhabited island. On the first day he built a makeshift hut to take refuge in and a collection of pictures he saved that reminded him of "home". He kept himself busy by gathering food. Thinking that nothing could be worse than being stuck alone on an island, he was surprised when he arrived from collecting woods one day. He saw a huge billowing column of smoke coming from his campsite. It was his hut burning. Angry, he screamed and at the top of his lungs, cursing God for everything. "Why? You left me alone here and worse burn everything I own!" In his despair and severe stress, he fell asleep. The following morning the loud sound of a ship horn echoed throughout the island. It was the rescue team looking for him. He asked the team how they found him. They said, "We saw your smoke signal from a distance of 50 miles and followed it."
