The Bridge of the Golden Wood: A Parable on How to Earn a Living
by Karl Beckstrand, Yaniv Cahoua
Color me not impressed. This story is supposed to be a parable on how to earn a living. A boy sets out in the woods, meets a woman who asks him to collect the sticks in the water so the fish might eat. Along comes a stranger who pays the boy to walk over the “bridge” he has created, and from now on, he spends his days getting paid for people to walk over his bridge. It’s supposed to be a life lesson on working and providing for your family, but I didn’t think it was that well done. The story was kind of boring and too simple.
