The Missing Axe
From Stories of the Spirit, Stories of the Heart
A man whose axe was missing suspected his neighbor's son. The boy walked like a thief, looked like a thief, and spoke like a thief. But the man found his axe while he was digging in the valley. The next time he saw the neighbor's son, the boy walked, looked, and spoke like any other child.
Reflection Questions:
What one word would you use to describe most people you know? (Kind? Mean? Loving? Untrustworthy?)
What one word would you use to describe yourself?
If you could only choose one word to describe how the entire world would act towards you, what word would that be?
What is one small thing you could do every day to act towards the world in that very same way?
I hope you've enjoyed this story from the book Stories of the Spirit, Stories of the Heart.
