The Scorpion
"An old man saw a scorpion drowning and
decided to pull it out from the water. He
calmly extended his hand to reach the
creature. When he did, the scorpion stung
him. With the effect of the pain, the old
man let go the creature and it fell back
into the water. The man realizing that the
scorpion was drowning again, got back and
tried to rescue it but then again it stung
him. He let go of it again.
A young boy standing by, approached the
old man and said, "Excuse me Sir, you are
going to hurt yourself trying to save the
evil-vicious creature, why do you insist?
Don't you realize that each time you try to
help the scorpion, it stings you?"
The man replied, "The nature of the
scorpion is to sting and mine is to help. My
nature will not change in helping the
scorpion."
So the man thought for a while and used a
leaf from a nearby tree and pulled the
scorpion out from the water and saved it's
life.
MORAL LESSON:
Do not change your nature. If someone
hurts you, just take precautions. Some
pursue happiness while others create it.
Let your conscience be your guide in
whatever you do."
