一个农夫在寒冷的冬天里看见一条蛇冻僵了,觉得它很可怜,就把它拾起来,小心翼翼地揣进怀里,用暖热的身体温暖着它。那条蛇受到了暖气,渐渐复苏了,又恢复了生机。等到它彻底苏醒过来,便立即恢复了本性,用尖利的毒牙狠狠地咬了恩人一口,使他受到了致命的创伤。
农夫临死的时候痛悔地说:“我可怜恶人,不辨好坏,结果害了自己,遭到这样的报应。如果有来世,我绝不怜惜像毒蛇一样的恶人。”
在没有知道别人身份,不知道别人的心地是否善良的.情况下,不要轻信和帮助别人,坏人永远不会因为你的悲悯而感动。我们应该谨慎小心,但不要吝惜对好人的帮助。
《农夫与蛇》这个伟大的故事告诫人们,对恶人千万不能心慈手软。即使对恶人仁至义尽,他们的邪恶本性也是不会改变的。善良的人们往往不能被人所理解,这个道理在今天这个社会同样适用。
