Tea And Coffee, Two Cups In Different FavorsThe story of a young man who would not listen to his mother's advice that eventually the problem occurred to him.
"Do not be bad, because someday you will regret it, son. People will always remember our wrongdoings ", the remarks ringing back to the young man's hearing, even though his mother had spoken it many years ago,
When he was still living in the village first. Until some time ago, the young man did not even understand why his mother always said the same words. Not just once or twice, but her mother often speaks these words whenever she gives advice on her sometimes unfavorable attitude to the mother's perspective.

At that time, it was not only his father's pond that the fish was carrying water, but two other ponds belonging to his uncle also lost a lot of fish.Did not hear the advice of parents
There are basically a lot of careless people in this world, and that's not a big deal, as long as they want to change and listen to the advice of those around them. However, similar things did not happen to this young man, even after he wandered and worked as a secretary in an office in the city.His job was to check all the rooms after the office home and lock the main door before finally returning to the rented house. He has been repeatedly reminded to be careful and check all the rooms first, to keep the office abandoned in good and safe condition.
Instead of doing a good job, he often does not check every room, so some lights are often left in a state of no outage. That afternoon after another employee came home, the young man hurried and locked the main door, without checking every room carefully.
All went well, an hour later a phone call from his boss said that an employee had been locked in their office.
Her boss was in the office, as well as several other employees who happened to be enjoying coffee at the cafe next to their office. The young man apologized and admitted his mistake, so he did not get any significant problems over the incident. However, this incident gave him an important lesson, which was none other than his mother's advice. "When you do good, then it is like a cup of delicious warm tea, when stirred the aroma is soothing and the color remains the same even after a long time.
But when you make a mistake, then it is like a cup of black coffee, when stirred the aroma is so tempting and the color will be immediately murky and black, although it had settled long ago. So people will always remember your wrongdoing, son, though it has been a long time ago. "
Her mother's advice really came true, because from that day the boy was always the talk of the workers there. Some of them often even teased him jokingly, not to leave and lock them in the office, like the previous employee.
