Say no, to Tit-for-Tat
..there were two guys, Ashwin & Anand. Sincere and energetic they were, such that few co-workers built-up a big greed on them, went ahead to report false stuffs about them to the higher officials - and that's been habitual. Eventually, Anand started being sluggish in his work; yet inspite of all such nonrecognitions, Ashwin remained taut and maintained his pace in the work.
Anand reasoned the greedy co-workers & the misled officials, rather Ashwin simply reasoned that to be loyal to the heavenly master than the worldly masters - both seems to have VALID reason, but checkout who wins--
The answer is on 'Matthew 5:39-48' - and that's what been expected to do - Ashwin wins!
The story of Anand & Ashwin ends here, yeah with no climax of their such lifestyle.
No matter, these verses from Matthew, IMO, is the better climax.
..Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you..
Its tough, very tough, to show the second cheek to our haters. But if that's been expected by our creator, we can dare to do it. For there's a thumb rule >> being truthful won't keep rewarding every time, but just in times when you actually need a reward.
