Do you have cows?

Finding happiness Part 4

This is close to what I have shared below.
The Venerable shared a story about the Buddha.

One day, a farmer lost his cows, and so he went out to search for them. Along the way, he came across the Buddha and some monks. Upon asking if they have seen his cows, the reply was no. After the farmer left, the Buddha turned to the monks and said:
"Aren't you glad that you have no cows"

When you dont have cows, you do not need to suffer. Suffer the fear of losing them, the suffering to look for them, the worrying of not finding them, etc...

You do not have to endure cow suffering!
