Sheep Thief And Saint

Many years ago, in a certain village in a certain country, there were two young men who together stole a sheep from villagers. Later they were found out. According to the village law, person who steal should be marked words of guilty in his front head. Then the two men were marked ST in their front head by hot iron.
After that event one young men still lived in the village and another went to city university to study a course of doctorship. After graduation, this young man came back to the village with a doctor degree and started his practice in his own village. He charged very cheap price so that every villager could afford to see doctor at the time of their sickness.
One day a tourist from other city found that this doctor’s forehead had a sign of ST. He asked the reason, and his patient replied this ST represented a meaning of “Saint” because this doctor did a lot of good thing to help villagers. In return, villagers respected him by calling him a saint. The story is very simple. It shows that when a person does something wrong, he can still have chance to remedy his wrongs.
