Hey, little buddies!<\/u><\/u><\/div>\n
<\/u>\u00a0<\/u><\/div>\n
When I was ten, my parents bought me a BB gun for Christmas.\u00a0 I loved that gun.\u00a0 My friends and I had so much fun hunting and target practicing!\u00a0 We would search the roadside ditches for soft drink bottles, which in those days were made of glass and could be returned to the store for a deposit.\u00a0 Some kinds of bottles brought two cents and others brought three cents.\u00a0 When we had one of each, we could turn them in at the store and have a nickel.\u00a0 We always bought BB\u2019s with that nickel, and you could get over a hundred of them.
\n\"beebee<\/u><\/div>\n
Once Randy, my buddy across the street, fumbled with his gun as he reloaded it and BB\u2019s went all over the sidewalk.\u00a0 My other friend, Ralph treated it as a joke and greedily picked up the little copper balls and put them into his own gun.\u00a0 Like a dummy, I followed his example and we tried to make Randy see how funny it all was.<\/u><\/u><\/div>\n
<\/u>\u00a0<\/u><\/div>\n
But a few days later I was shooting with Randy at his house and when I went home I forgot my gun.\u00a0 Later that day I saw him run out into his yard and throw down my gun.\u00a0 When I went to get it, there was not a single BB left in it.\u00a0 Randy had taken all my BB\u2019s, nearly a whole hundred-shot pack.<\/u><\/u><\/div>\n
<\/u>\u00a0<\/u><\/div>\n
All of a sudden, taking somebody else\u2019s BB\u2019s didn\u2019t seem like a joke.\u00a0 When it happened to me, it wasn\u2019t funny at all.\u00a0 I learned a lesson from that.\u00a0 Ever since then, I\u2019ve always tried to treat others as I\u2019d like to be treated myself.\u00a0 I hope you have learned that lesson, too.<\/u><\/u><\/div>\n
