The Boy and His Coat

When he was born, he was abandoned near the dustbin! to keep away the cold he was covered with an expensive coat. He grew old enough to walk, work and earn. He delivered newspapers in an old broken cycle, from door to door, he also read a few when he was free. He earned and saved some money in the pocket of the coat he received as a gift... He considered that coat not only as a gift but as a shield, but never once thought of the one who gave it to him. There was a man sitting on the footpath, while he was heading home. The boy with his coat on, stopped and asked the man, what had happened? The man gave a sigh and narrated his story... once his sign was most valuable than anything to people his mere existence was necessary but, because of his most valuable belonging being thrown away by him he had nothing to live for. He told the boy all what had happened... The boy then removed his coat with the money in it and gave it to the man telling him 'Thank you'! That man was stunned that was his son the most valuable thing in his life, had taught him something, valuable in life! By Manthra
