The Sting of the Scorpion

Elder Patrick Kearon of the Seventh

One day when they were in the desert, he was gonna go explore. His parents had always told him to wear shoes because they would help with better protection when it came too snakes. Scorpions etc. One day he go up and wanted to go explore. He didn't feel like putting his shoes but he knew it was the right thing to do, he disobeyed anyways. He went along and put his sandals and thought “they are like shoes after all.” he was wrong. A couple minutes into exploring he says he felt a sting that felt like a thorn he looked down and his surprise was that he saw a scorpion. A scorpion had bit him! The pain ruched up to his leg and he sat down and started calling for help. His parents rushed over to him and saw what had happened, they quickly loaded the car and began their drive to the hospital near by which was 2 hrs. away. When they got to the doctor they said it wasn't that bad and numbed his leg so he wouldn't feel pain. After that he said he learned his lesson. What he learned was to obey and do what's right even if you don't feel like it. What i learned was to always listen to what other tell you it because they tell you it for a reason, especially if they are older. We must always do what's right, even if we don't “feel like it” because either way, its what's right.
