Betrayal: Scorpion and turtle folktale.

My dear turtle, laughed the scorpion, “if I were to sting you, you would drown and I would go down with you. Now where is the logic in that?
You’re right! cried the turtle. Hop on! The scorpion then climbed aboard and halfway across the river gave the turtle a deadly sting. As they both sank to the bottom, the turtle resignedly said:
Do you mind if I ask you something? You said there’d be no logic in your stinging me. Why did you do it? It has nothing to do with logic, the drowning scorpion sadly replied. It’s just my character.
So it is with SOME humans too. No matter how nice or good you are to them, its just their nature and character to sting ( betray, rob, cheat, hurt, kill, blackmail etc) for no reason.
May the Almighty God protect you from the scorpions in your life!

Beware of two-faced people, because they are untrustworthy and despicable!
Life experiences opened my eyes to be more cautious with certain people around me. Lessons learned in life.
Sober reflections about life.
Your birth came through others. Your name was given by others. Your were educated by others. Your income indirectly comes through others. Your respect is given by others. Your first bath was given by others. Your last bath will be done by others. Your funeral will be organised by others. You will be taken to your final resting place by *others* and everything you owned will be inherited by others. Hmm.....why, then, do some of us let our ego, our career, our money and our beliefs undermine the worth of others in our lives, when we are so dependent on others. Isn't it high time we learned to live in peace and harmony with others, because all through our lives, at one point or the other, we will need each other. Kindly share with others.
