THE TIED DONKEY | A SHORT STORY FULL OF LESSON

THE TIED DONKEY

A Donkey was tied to a tree. Then the Devil came and untied him.

The Donkey went to the nearby maize field and stated eating everything.

The Wife to the Owner of the maize field saw him and was worried the crop will be destroyed. She got her Hubby’s rifle and killed the Donkey.

The Owner of the Donkey just saw his dead Donkey and was mad and got out his own rifle and killed the Woman.

The Husband to the Woman came home and found his Wife dead and was told she was killed by the Neighbour.

He got his rifle in anger and without asking, killed the Donkey’s owner.

Children to the Donkey’s owner came and were enraged on hearing their Dad was killed by their Neighbour because of a mere maize field.
Without asking and without getting real facts, they went and burnt the entire maize field.

The Farmer was even more upset and shot all the three sons.

Now an Angel asked the Devil, “what have you done?”

The Devil answered saying, “I did nothing wrong but release a poor donkey that was tied.”

Do you get that??

The Devil is not as powerful as you think . He rather works in all sorts of innocent ways to incite people to do evil things over little things.

In this period or festive period coming, please look before you leap, watch out for the donkey that might be on the loose, especially this yuletide season.
Thus, watch the tied donkeys in our lives and also learn to control our anger.
