Last Friday, a friend of mine asked me to accompany him to buy a new shirt at a department store.
We left home at 03.00 p.m. by motorcycle. As soon as we arrived there, we went to the clothes
section. I let him choose one. An hour later, I got bored watching him confused in choosing a shirt.
So I left him and went to the cassette counter. Thirty minutes later, I went back to the clothes
section but I couldn’t find him there. My cell phone was broken so I couldn’t call him. I went to the
parking area. I saw his motorcycle was there but I couldn’t find him. I waited for him for a few
moments then finally I gave up and decided to go home.
When I arrived home, my mother told me that my friend called. She said that he was in the
department store looking for me. My mother asked me to come back to the department store.
Reluctantly, I walked to the department store and you know what? When I arrived there his
motorcycle was not in the parking area. He just went home. I was very tired. There was no other
choice, I had to walk home again. When I arrived home, I was so tired. I was very angry but when I
saw my friend’s broad smile greet me in front of the door, I just could not help laughing.

Once a man sold his well to a farmer. Next day when a farmer went to draw the water
from that well, the man did not allow him to draw the water from it. He said, “I have sold you the
well, not the water, so you cannot draw the water from the well.”
The farmer became very sad and came to the Emperor’s court. He described everything
to the Emperor and asked for the justice. The Emperor called Birbal and handed over this case to
him. Birbal called the man who sold the well to the farmer. Birbal asked, “Why don’t you let him
use the water of the well. You have sold the well to the farmer.” The man replied, “Birbal, I have
sold the well to the farmer, not the water. He has no right to draw the water from the well.”
Then Birbal smiled and said to him, “Good, but look, since you have sold the well to this
farmer, and you claim that water is yours, then you have no right to keep your water in the
