A Maid Teaches Compassion

A mentor taught me, "Do not slight anyone, the lowest of people may have the highest wisdom."

There was a house with many workers. Most of them stole from the owner and left. The owner then asked the remaining maid, "Why have you not stolen from me and left like the others?"

The maid replied, "I consider this house as my home, how can I steal from my own home?" 

Seeing others as strangers, it is easy for us to take advantage of them. Seeing others as our own helps us develop our universal compassion.
