In a small town in France,there was a farmer who lived alone.Every day he sold a pound of butter to his neighbour,who was a baker,One day the baker decided to weigh the butter to see if he was getting a pound.After he weighed it,he found that he wasn't.The baker then took the farmer to the judge (法官).
The judge asked the farmer if he had any way to weigh the butler.The farmer replied."I am so poor that I do not have enough money to buy anything to weigh it,but I do have a kind of scale(天平)." The judge asked,"Then how do you weigh the buttery" The farmer replied,"Before the baker started buying butler from me,I had bought bread from him.So now every time when I bring home the bread from the baker,I put it On the scale and give him the butter of the same weight,"
We get back what we give to Others in life.Whenever you take action,ask yourself this question ,"Am I honest?"
Honesty or dishonesty can become a habit.Some dishonest people can lie(說謊) without a red face.Others lie so much that they do not even know what the truth is any more.But who is it bad for?As a matter of fact,those who lie will hurt themselves by their own dishonest behaviour.
