The purpose of life

مقصد زندگی

A long time ago, there was an Emperor who told his horseman that if he could ride on his horse and cover as much land area as he likes, then the Emperor would give him the area of land he has covered. Sure enough, the horseman quickly jumped onto his horse and rode as fast as possible to cover as much land area as he could. He kept on riding and riding, whipping the horse to go as fast as possible. When he was hungry or tired, he did not stop because he wanted to cover as much area as possible.

سال‌ها پیش، حاکمی به یکی از سوارکارانش گفت: مقدار سرزمین‌هایی را که بتواند با اسبش طی کند را به او خواهد بخشید. همان طور که انتظار می‌رفت، اسب سوار به سرعت برای طی کردن هر چه بیشتر سرزمین‌ها سوار بر اسبش شد و با سرعت شروع کرد به تاختن. با شلاق زدن به اسبش با آخرین سرعت ممکن می‌تاخت و می‌تاخت. حتی وقتی گرسنه و خسته بود، متوقف نمی‌شد، چون می‌خواست تا جایی که امکان داشت سرزمین‌های بیشتری را طی کند.
