Do Not Hurt Yourself

One night a snake, while it was looking for food, entered a carpenter’s workshop.

The carpenter, who was a rather untidy man, had left several of his tools lying on the floor. One of them was a saw. As the snake went round and round the shop, he climbed over the saw, which gave him a little cut.

At once, thinking that the saw was attacking him, he turned around and bit it so hard that his mouth started to bleed. This made him very angry. He attacked again and again until the saw was covered with blood and seemed to be dead.

Dying from his own wounds, the snake decided to give one last hard bite then turned away. The next morning the carpenter was surprised to find a dead snake on his doorstep.

Lesson to Learn:
Sometimes in trying to hurt others, we only hurt ourselves..

感谢月莉小姐和大家分享的这个故事。的确,人往往在想害其他人的时候都忽略了,真正害到的人其实是自己。馆主个人认为 [i.e.不代表本学习馆立场 :p]: sometimes in trying to inflict pain and misery on others, we'll only realize that the greatest pain and misery resulted from the action / thought is upon ourselves... so why don't we try to bring happiness to others instead?

不知道馆主的想法是否正确,但是,让这世界加注多一分的快乐和欢笑总比多一分悲伤来得好吧?

祝福大家哦!
