THE SNAKEBITE

A Story With A Great Lesson

A farmer brought his 4-year-old son to the farm and let him rest while he worked. While tilling the soil, the farmer heard his son scream loudly. He rushed over and found he’d been bitten by a snake. He witnessed the snake slithering away quickly.

Overcome with anger, he yelled at the top of his voice, "No, my son, No! That snake won't escape me! I'll make it pay! I'll chop it into pieces and throw it in the fire! The fire will burn it completely! I'll make it suffer for this!"

The farmer quickly took up a cutlass and went in pursuit of the snake. As he ran after the snake, it slipped into a heap of logs and concealed itself. To catch the snake, he began lifting the logs one by one.

As he reached for the final log, the snake suddenly leapt out and crawled into a hole. Determined to catch the snake, he began digging the hole with his cutlass. He kept digging tirelessly for nearly an hour, getting closer and closer to the snake. At last, he caught the snake and ended its life at once.

After taking his revenge, the farmer felt fulfilled and pleased as he confidently walked back to his son. However, upon his return, he was overwhelmed with shock to find his son had passed away. Gripped by terror, he raced to a healer with his lifeless son in his arms. He told her everything and begged her to save his son.
"Please, do whatever it takes to revive my son!"

Upon examining the boy, the healer shook her head hopelessly and said,
"If you had come to me the moment your son was bitten by the snake, I could have saved his life. But you were so consumed by vengeance that you couldn’t see the danger… and your son paid the price. I'm sorry, but some lessons come at a terrible cost!" ***

The quest for vengeance often consumes us, clouding our judgment and poisoning our hearts. When we hold onto anger and seek revenge, we trap ourselves in a cycle of pain and destruction that can harm not only others but also ourselves. True strength lies in the ability to forgive and let go, freeing ourselves from the burden of resentment. By choosing forgiveness, we open the door to healing, peace, and a brighter future — one where we are no longer controlled by past hurts, but empowered to live with compassion and understand

Vengeance is sweet when served from above.

Not all enemies use weapons; some will use kindness and friendship to gain access to destroy you.

People get disappointed when God blesses someone they looked down at.
They will still be blessed no matter how less you think of them.

Imagine if God can remove nature and it's associates and then leave the earth an empty space under man's control.
Would survival be possible?

Just because you're right doesn't make the other person wrong, you just haven't seen life from their position.
Reason from their highest or lowest perspective and you will come to accept their thoughts peacefully.

Men who misplace priorities intentionally only to pick them later 🤔

Many men tend to withdraw or refuse to fulfill their responsibilities each time they have misunderstandings with their wives. Your children remain your children regardless of the differences you have with their mother. It’s foolish for some men to stop providing family allowances, for example, every time there’s a disagreement.

Who are you punishing—your wife or your kids? Running away from your responsibilities, especially those concerning your children, will leave a lasting impression on them, making them see you as a bad father. Most of them may not realize that it was because of their mother that you sometimes exhibited such negative behavior. Even if they do understand, they will still hold it against you when they mature.

Taking care of your children and your family as a whole is an obligation, regardless of the misunderstandings you have with your wife.

To make matters worse, some husbands or fathers ensure they are not on good terms with their wives during critical times when parents should come together to discuss the future of their kids. For instance, during the back-to-school period, they create problems to avoid the responsibility of registering their children and paying their fees, leaving all the struggles to the mother.

Only later do they look for ways to resolve the issue when the wife has already worked tirelessly to prepare the kids for school resumption.

A husband remains a husband as far as responsibilities are concerned, regardless of any misunderstandings with his wife. Don’t intentionally run from your responsibilities toward your children, pretending it’s because of your wife—that’s a lie. Even if you have disagreements, you still have the right and obligation to take care of your family during those difficult times.
