There was a
king who had 10 wild dogs. He used them to torture and eat all ministers who
made mistakes. One of the ministers once gave an opinion which was wrong, and
which the king didn’t like at all. So the king ordered that the minister be
thrown to the dogs. The minister said, “I served you 10 years, and you do this
to me? Please give me 10 days before throwing me to those dogs!” The king
agreed. In those 10 days the minister went to the guard that looks after the
dogs and told him he would like to serve the dogs for the next 10 days. The
guard was baffled but he agreed, and the minister started feeding the dogs,
cleaning for them, washing them, and providing all sorts of comfort for them.
When the 10 days were over, the king ordered that the minister be thrown to the
dogs for his punishment. When he was thrown in, everyone was amazed to see the
ravenous dogs only licking the feet of the minister! The king, baffled at what
he saw, said: ”What has happened to my dogs?” The minister replied: "I
served the dogs for 10 days, and they didn’t forget my service. Yet I served
you for 10 years and you forgot all, at the first mistake!" The king
realized his mistake and ordered the minister to go free. This message is a
GIFT to all those who forget the GOOD in others as soon as a problem arises.
Don’t wipe out the history that is filled with good because of a small incident
you didn’t like.
