Self vanity

Budi, a boy grade 3 just won a medal as the best reader in the class. Lulled by vanity, he boasted before the maid at home, "Aunt, look, if you want to be able to read as well as my aunt." The maid took the book, looked at him, and finally said haltingly, "Son Budi, I can not read."

Arrogant like a peacock, the little boy ran into the family room and shouted to his father, "Well, Aunt could not read, while I was only 8 years though, I've been able to read a medal for excellence. I want to know how the hell he felt, looking at books but can not read. "

Without saying a word. father walked to the bookshelf, take a book. and gave him to Jake and said. "Aunt feel like this." The book was written in German and Bob could not read a single word.

Boys will never forget the lessons that one moment. When the feeling of pride comes, he will quietly remind him, "Remember, you can not read in German".
