If a good person does a bad thing, does that make them bad?... A short story for you!
The late king of community had ten wild dogs. He used them to torture and eat any of his servants who make a mistake.
One of the servants gave an opinion which was wrong and the king didn't like it at all. So he ordered that the servant be thrown to the dogs.
The servant said, "I have served you for ten years and you are doing this to me? Please give me ten days before you throw me to those dogs!"
The king agreed.
In those 10 days, the servant went to the guard who looks after the dogs and told him he would like to serve the dogs for the next 10 days.
The guard was baffled but agreed, and the servant started feeding the dogs, cleaning for them, bathing them, and providing all sorts of comfort for them.
When 10 days were over, the king ordered that the servant be thrown to wild dogs for his punishment. When he was thrown in, all amazed to see the ravenous dogs only licking the feet of servant!
The king, baffled at what he was seeing, said, "What has happened to my dogs?"
The servant replied, "I served the dogs for only 10 days, and they didn't forget my service. Yet I served you for 10 whole years and you forgot everything, at my first mistake."
This short story is a message to all those who forget the good thing a person did for them as soon as the person makes a mistake towards them. Don't throw out the history that is filled with good, quality actions... because of one mistake that hurt you.
I hope you like the story.
Kindly don't forget to share it.
