Something to Remember........

 

The History of the Middle Finger.....

 

Moral of the story, do not support evil.

Long time ago in the Animal Kingdom, a sheep was passing and saw a lion crying inside a cage trap; and the lion begged the sheep to save him with a promise not to kill and eat it. The sheep refused*.

After much persuasion and for the sheep's gullibility it opened the cage.

The lion got out. He was very hungry, having stayed in the cage for days without food.

The lion quickly grabbed the sheep to kill and eat, but the sheep reminded him of his promise.

They were still there arguing when other animals came passing by. They sought to know what happened.

*Both the lion and the sheep narrated their own side of the story; but because of fear and in trying to gain favour in the sight of the lion, all the animals took side with the lion except the tortoise who claimed not to understand the whole scenario*.

The tortoise asked the lion to show them where he was before the sheep rescued him. The lion pointed at the cage.

He asked again, "were you inside or outside when the sheep arrived"? The lion said he was inside.

The tortoise again said "OK! Just enter. Let us see how difficult it could have been for you to be inside".

The lion entered and the tortoise locked the cage with the lion back inside.

*In amazement the other animals asked tortoise "Why?" and he replied by saying "If we allow him eat the sheep today, he will still go hungry tomorrow and we don't know who amongst us will be next to be eaten tomorrow*.

Do not support evil today because it doesn't affect you directly or because it was done by your favorite relative or politicians. Tomorrow it could affect you and it could be your turn to be hurt.
