The Farmer and the Thief
A thief made his home near the house of
a farmer. The thief tried to steal from the farmer but ended up to
mortally wounding the farmer's son by trying to defend himself. The man
got away while the farmer was left there trying to save his son. Sad for
the loss of his son, the farmer swore that he would get his revenge on
the robber. The farmer left some of his most prized possessions out as
bait for the thief. The next day the thief came back to get the
possessions but was shot in the butt by the farmer. He messed up his aim
so he didn't get a good shot on the man. The farmer realized that he
was in trouble but the robber decided to run away. The farmer decided to
make peace with the guy by laying some of his treasures at the front
door of the thief's house. The thief came out of his house and said in a
serious tone, "There cannot be peace between us since every time I see
you I think about when you shot me and every time you see me you think
of your son."
