Many years ago there was a great personality who was famous for reading books. His name was Shah Suri who spent his leisure time reading books. Once he was reading a book, a friend of him came and said how are you, friend? Shah replied that he is extremely fine. Shah Suri was reading, he said. You are wasting your time reading books. Nothing you will achieve in this city. It is boring a city. shah Suri replied that people will not be famous by reading books. “his real friend said. Yes, I have never seen anyone who has got a chance and job by reading books. After all, Shah Suri said. “I will show you how people will be famous by reading and writing books. So, his friend asked, “what is the purpose of reading books, may you tell me please.” He said if you read a book no doubt you will be aware of the rights of parents and other people. Shah Suri said the generation of knowledge in peoples’ minds is education.

            If you learn, you will be full of knowledge, and when you don’t read it is for sure that life becomes unstable. Our parents were uneducated but we need to be educated in this city. Then his friend gave no response and went away. Further, the scholar proceeded to study even of not wasting a minute on useless things. He wrote and read the majority of books. Some years later, he got the best job that he was expected. One day he was going on his way to the jungle, and he saw his bosom friend who was cutting woods. He went to him and asked, “how you are dear friend?” He looked gloomy and said Shah Surii you are good with your new car and clothes. Shah Suri said “do you remember your words the time when you visited me. He replied yes I do remember you suggested me respecting and reading books but instead to listen to you, I made fun of you, and due to that my condition is likewise today.

            After all, the well-educated man promised the man helping me to grow up and by this the woodcutter thanked him and he regretted too much and said the educated man listening him to the rest of his life.
