There was a man who had a horse. One day the horse got out of the corral and ran away, and the man’s neighbors said, “Oh, that’s bad,” and the man said, “Well, I don’t know about that.”
That night the man’s horse came home and walked into the corral with several wild horses, and the man’s neighbors said, “Oh, that’s good,” and the man said, “Well, I don’t know about that.”
The next day the man’s son was breaking one of the wild horses and got bucked off and broke his leg. The man’s neighbor said, “Oh, that’s bad,” and the man said, “Well, I don’t know about that.”
The following day some men came and took all the able-bodied young men to go fight in a war. They didn’t take the man’s son because he had a broken leg. The man’s neighbors said, “Oh, that’s good,” and the man said, “You never know.”
