Parable of the Bond-holders

Bond Holder was walking down the street when he was approached by a strange fellow.

“Give me your wallet” the fellow said.

“No” said the Bond Holder.

“Alright, I’m going to be reasonable. Give me half.”

And still the Bond Holder refused.

He was being unreasonable. After all, the other stake holder in the conversation had already compromised and was willing to take only half of what he had asked for in the beginning (a mighty sacrifice, you must agree).

Besides, the Bond Holder might not really deserve the money. Maybe he cheats on his wife. Maybe he serves over cooked pasta to guests. Who knows what sins he committed in the past.
