The Old Woman and the Snake


An old woman was walking down the road when she saw a gang of thugs beating a poisonous snake. She rescued the snake and carried it back to her home, where she nursed it back to health. They became friends and lived together for many months. One day they were going into town, and the old woman picked him up and the snake bit her. Repeatedly. "O God" she screamed, "I am dying! Why? I was you friend. I saved your life! I trusted your! Why did you bite me?"



The Snake looked up at her and said, "Lady, you knew I was a snake when you first picked me up"
