A man saw a snake being burned to death and decided to take it out of the fire.
When he did, the snake bit him causing excruciating pain.
The man dropped the snake, and the reptile fell right back into the fire.
So, the man looked around and found a metal pole and used it to take the snake out of the fire, saving its life.
Someone who was watching approached the man and said: “That snake bit you. Why are you still trying to save it?”
The man replied: “The nature of the snake is to bite, but that’s not going to change my nature, which is to help.”
Do not change your nature simply because someone harms you.
Do not lose your good heart, but learn to take precautions.❤
Wonderful message!

That’s crazy. I hope that the fellow is alright. All that was going through my head was don’t treat others how they might treat you. It’s hard sometimes because some people yo just want to give it to them because they be asking for it. I’m sure that we have some people in our life that their name and face come to mind. But I live by this model I try my best to treat others with respect inspire of them not treating me that way. As a side not. I ain’t gone lie after that snake bit me ain’t no way in hell I would of helped it. I would been singing burn baby burn disco inferno and calling 9-11 askig approximately how long do you think I got before this poison kills me.
