A Tale of Two Men: Greed and Goodness

Tweet

Friends, I am going to tell you a small tale. You can understand that many human beings have traits that are difficult to decipher. I am friendly with a family in North India. In one of my meetings, the lady of the house told me that her brother had transferred all the ancestral property to his name by making a fictitious will after the death of his parents. He had 2 siblings The father had died intestate, and the property was ancestral, and in the name of the grandfather, in other words, the brother had cheated both his siblings out of the property. She also regretted all the time taunting her husband that his brother had eaten away all the property of the village and she had got nothing. The father-in-law had left a will giving the property to his youngest son. All the time she would be taunting her husband that the younger son(his brother) was sitting on the property like a snake, but sometime back, she learned that despite the will, the younger brother did not transfer the property to his name. There was one brother and sister who had been excluded from the property but now were entitled to it. I wonder what to make of this? One man makes a fictitious will and grabs the property and another man ignores the will and gives the property to everyone. Friends, this is just a small event in the life of man, and I wonder what you can make out of the nature of both men.
