A child working with his father in an iron shop suddenly asked his father,

Boy: "Father, what's value of a human being?"

Dad: "Son, it is very difficult to judge the value of a human being, that is priceless."

Boy - Are all equally valuable and important?

Dad - yes son.

Boy - then why is there any poor and rich in this world? Why is someone less responsible than someone?

Hearing the question, Dad remained calm for some time and then asked the boy to bring an iron rod lying in the store room.

Dad asked - how much will this rod cost?

Boy 200 rupees.

Dad - If I make a lot of small nails, how much will they cost?

Boy - Then they will be more expensive than about 1000 rupees.

Dad - If I make lots of clock springs with this iron?

The child kept calculating for a while and then excitedly said, "Then it will cost a lot."

Father then explained to him, "Just like this, the value of a man is not in what he is now, but in what he can make himself."

Moral -This short story encourages us to focus on our potential to create positive change and achieve our goals, rather than being defined by our current circumstances or limitations. It reminds us that our value is ultimately determined by our ability to make ourselves better and contribute to society in meaningful ways.
