Once there was a scorpion that asked a frog to
take it across a stream. The frog said, “How do I know that you are not
going to sting me while I am doing it”? The scorpion said, “Don’t
worry, if I do that, I will die also”. The
frog thought for awhile and decided that what the scorpion said was not
unreasonable. So the frog asked the scorpion to climb onto its back. Half
way across the stream, the frog felt a sharp pain. The scorpion had
stung it. Just when the frog was about to die, it looked up at the
scorpion and said, “But why”! The scorpion answered, “I can’t help it,
it’s my nature”. Self-destruction; don’t do it. Change what you cannot accept.
