Life’s Lessons: This was bound to happen
Once a highly successful businessman, running a health insurance company, was getting ready to go to office. When he reached his car and opened the door, a stray dog sleeping under one of the seats came out barking and bit his leg!

The businessman got very angry, picked up a few rocks and threw them at the dog, but missed. The dog fled. Upon reaching office, the businessman called a meeting of his managers and during the meeting, the anger of the dog made him snap at them.
The managers also got upset and put their anger on those working under them. The chain of reaction continued and finally the anger reached the office peon. Now, there was no one working under the peon. So, after work hours, he reached home and his wife opened the door. She asked him, “Why are you so late today?” The peon got upset and slapped his wife and said, “I didn’t go to the office to play football, I went to work so don’t irritate me with your stupid questions.”
So, now the wife got upset and her son became the target. She slapped the son and said, “This is all you do, you have no interest in studying! Turn off the TV now!” The son got upset now and walked out of the house. He saw a do passing by, picked up a rock and hit him in anger and frustration. The dog ran away barking in pain. This was the same dog that bit the businessman the same morning.
Moral: This was bound to happen. You reap what you sow. This is how life works. While we all worry about hell and heaven based on our deeds, we should concentrate more on how we live and behave. Do good, Good will come, Do Wrong, Wrong will come.
