STORY TIME BLAMING OTHERS Afrin Nantasa (VII B) One day a man went for a walk on the beach. He saw a ship full of passengers which was struck by rocks and it drowned. All the passengers drowned and died. The man was helplessly watching all this from the shore and was feeling bad but could not do anything to save them. In the evening he narrated the sad incident of the ship s drowning to his friends. Everyone felt sad for the dead people. One man said God did an unjust act. To kill one sinner abroad the ship he has killed many other innocent people. As he was saying this he felt a pinch on his feet. He looked down and saw a red ant biting his toe. Many other red ants were around. In anger, he started stamping his feet and crushed away many red ants. Suddenly God appeared and said, Look how you are killing many innocent ants to kill one and you were blaming me for being unjust. The man felt ashamed and realized his mistake. MORAL:- We should first look out at own actions before blaming others.
