The sting of the scorpion

The sting of the scorpion tells the story of Elder Patrick Kearon when he was just a child. His family and him went out camping in the Arabian Peninsula. As you may know the Arabian Peninsula is mostly desert and that is the reason as to why his mother told him to put shoes on. Patrick though that there was no need to wear shoes because he was just going for a walk and didn’t need to put shoes on. Instead he put convinced himself that flip flops will do. As he walked he felt a sting and to his astonishment it was a scorpion that had caused such pain. He yelled over at his parents and they took him to the nearest hospital which was over two hours away. In a rush his parents took him to the hospital where he was treated and because of that act of disobedience he learned a powerful lesson.

The moral of the story was that you should always listen to what your parents say because they are only looking out for you. You shouldn’t wait until you get stung by the scorpion to do whats right. You should obey and prevent any disasters from occurring.
