reciprocity??


many times most graceful acts of yours are not reciprocated, what do you do if the other side is not able to understand, absorb and reciprocate kindness, grace and goodwill. Just persist with what you think is the right course of action, let me tell u all a story, may be u have heard it already. 
there was a Sadhu taking bath in a river. Many other people were also taking bath alongside. After a while people saw some thing strange. Sadhu was trying to save a scorpion who was about to sink in the water. Every time sadhu will lift scorpion in his hand, he will sting, hand will tremble, and the scorpion will fall into the water. Sadhu will again lift scorpion, again it will sting, and it will fall. One of the bystanders could not resist asking sadhu, why was he doing that repeatedly. Sadhu replied, : look, he does what is his natural behaviour, that is to sting. when he does not change his behaviour, why should i change my behaviour which is to save. -------welll.....
