In the service
of God,
one
can learn 3 things from a child, and 7 things
from a thief.....
From a child one
can learn
1) always be happy,
2) never to sit
idle, and
3) cry for everything
one wants.
From a thief you
should learn:
1) to work at night,
2) if one cannot
gain it
in one night to try again the next night,
3) to love one's
coworkers just as
thieves love each other,
4) to be willing
to risk one's life, even for a
little thing,
5) not to attach
too much value to things even though you've risked your life
for them -- just as a thief will resell a stolen article for
a fraction of its worth
6) to withstand
all kinds of beatings an tortures
but to remain what you are, and
7) to believe that
your work is worthwhile
and not be willing to change it.
