Long time ago there was a lone farmer living in a small house not far from busiest road between large village and the forest where poor folk lived. Farmer had plenty of food, scenery around the house was beautiful and he even had a piano bought from village inn. He was very kind and generous, happy and blissful so much so that some could have called him enlightened, he only thought himself as very modest and simple man.

Poor folk used the road to go and buy whatever they could with little they had.
One day nice and kind poor fellow bumbed in to the farmer at the village market, farmer offered to buy some food for the fellow and invited him for a tea at the farm. Soon they became friends and poor fellow would ask if his friends could come and get to know the farmer too.

Time passed and now farmer had people coming to see him all the time even from far away places as he radiated good will and love, he had plenty of food to share and shelter for travelers. Everything he had was shared with everyone on one condition, that others would share everything too. This worked well and there was new kind of air around people living outside village, air of hope and joy.

As rich villagers where cold and heartless, poor people also had a darker side as they loved to drink and party to drown their sorrows for just a little time and discuss how evil and mad rich villagers where. Farmer didn't like that much, but he always knew peoples hearts and never judged. Every morning before work at farm he would clean the house from last nights partying and make a meal for anyone he had sheltered for the night. He rarely got helping hand as everyone would be either drunk or sleeping hangovers.

One day feeling came upon farmer that if he continues to give he wouldn't have enough to eat for himself, his house would be destroyed bit by bit because of heavy partying and he never would have time to enjoy his beautiful scenery in silence.

What should the farmer do? :)

QuoteWhat should the farmer do?

Post a list of rules that people have to abide by if they want to partake in his generosity. If they disrespect those rules, they gotta go. When your down and out, you're lucky that someone would offer his place like that and should respect his wishes.

I think of myself as being a fairly humble person, but when people take advantage of that I get very stern and take control.

That's if I was the farmer... really it's his farm and he can do whatever he wants. He has the right to be a jerk and kick them all off ASAP if he wanted. His personal morality is the only one that matters here.

Assuming he wishes to continue to play God, He should introduce karma.
