A story of a snake

A snake was injured by its predator and lying motionless on the ground. A young man he saw it and picks the snake up and brought it home to feed and nurtured him with his loving kindness and compassion as this is an unconditional universal love towards all living beings.
As days goes by, the snake gets it back and growing to a full state of good health. The young man seems to be very happy and honored for what has done for a good deed and good meritorious karma by rescuing and nurturing the snake.

Unfortunately, one day the snake bites him and injecting its deadly venom to the one who has saved its life. The young Samaritan man was completely horrified and in pain, and his body internal organs are beginning to shut down and the poor young man is very helpless and he is dying soon. 

The dying young man asked the snake with his final words, " my dear snake, why are you doing this to me ? Can't you see how much I have been taking care and nurturing you? When you were injured, no one has come to rescue you, but it was me , why you are still biting me ? 

The snake replied to the dying young man, " you know very well, I was a venomous snake when you picked me up, and you know you are responsible for your owned actions, and I am merely a snake and bites and injections of venomous poison is my nature and instinct" 

The morals of this story are telling us when someone's ignorance and egoistic and without wisdoms , it doesn't help even though with your unconditional loves, loving compassion and bodhichitta kindness.
