“The sting of the scorpion “

                                        -Patrick Keoron

A young kid was camping in the desert with his mother and father. They always told him to put on his shoes whenever he was going to explore and walk around. One day the little kid did not want to put on his tennis shoes and instead put on flip flops to go explore.As he was walking with his flip flops on he felt something like a thorn go on the side of his foot. That pain and sting was not from a thorn it was from a scorpion. They then rushed him to the hospital and everything was okay but yet he was in so much pain for those 2 hours until he reached the hospital. This shows that when you do not listen and you choose the wrong you can end up getting hurt or paying the consequences. The sting from the scorpion represent things such as consequences and the hurting we do when we do not listen. Listening to what people tell you and always doing the right thing can lead to a life without a lot of pain, while choosing the wrong can mean a life with a sting of a scorpion.
