While the other brother was thinking : "My father is an old man , a boat that got lost between the waves , a piece of timber that sinks all day long and the flavor of fisherman that I can't stand any more ".
He did not have any respect for him . Since he thought that the sea and his old father were only a nightmare . He preferred not to listen and he would say :
-The sea has no secrets . It is repetitive and boring , it only knows how to come and go . What can it teach me ? The fish are good to sell but for nothing more . We have been catching them for many years now , and the poor fools keep rising and coming to die in our nets . What is good or valuable here ? There is only sand , a hot sun, a storm in the beach . What is good about the life of a fisherman who puts only fish in his table . There is nothing here worth to know and to value .
And the old father kept on teaching and kept on warning . And since life passes and nothing stays , one day the father delivered his life to the sea of the infinite , where the stars are the line of the horizon and where the boat of life never returns to the port of this world .
And the time came when his children had to face the day and they sailed in their boats . This time the sea seemed calm , pleasant , soft , as a kind mother . And since there was plenty of fish , the brothers went beyond reasonable limits...continued>
