At times when we are at our lowest, we need something to lift us our spirits up. I find that quotes, short stories and poems helps me lots through these process. To remind me that to count every small blessings :)In rainy days you might want a little sunshine to light your heart. In sunny days you might want a shade and cool breeze.. Just like little kind words and some motivation to get through rough days.. Something to keep you going.

════════ Story of 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. It 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. Do not let others make you what you are not, If someone hurts you, just take precautions.
Some pursue happiness while others create it. Let your conscience be your guide in whatever you do.
