This is a true story
A woman went to complain to her mother:
– Mom, I can’t stand my husband anymore. I want to kill him.
But I’m afraid of getting arrested. Do you think you can help me?
Her mother answered him:
– Yes, my daughter, I can. But there’s a catch.
First, you will be forced to make peace with him, so that no one suspects that it is you that killed him.
You’ll have to maintain a good and innocent image of yourself, so take care.
Be kind, grateful, patient, and loving to him.
Be less selfish, more fair, more attentive to him… So that no one suspects you. Will you be able to do it?
– Yes, Mom, her daughter answered.
– Okay, that’s fine… Here’s this powder, every day you’ll put a little in his food and he’ll slowly die.
After 30 days, the woman saw her mother again:
– Mom, I don’t want to kill my husband anymore.
I love him now. He’s changed and become kinder than before. How can I stop the poison from taking effect? I’m sorry, please help me.
Her mother answered:
– Don’t worry. What I gave you is flour.
He’s not going to die.
*Actually, the poison was in you.*
When we feed hatred and resentment, we slowly kill ourselves.
When you started to love and appreciate your husband, you saw in him someone else.
This is how you have to behave.
*All human beings are good, but it is we and society that make them change.*
