Answers
Answer:
It was a bright sunny morning and the football ground was shining with yellow rays from the sun.
Seeing this, a group of boys nearby decided that we will play a football match and each one of us can bring something used for the matches. One can bring a football, another the corner flag, others the goalkeeper gloves, marking chalk, goalposts, etc.,
After some time everyone gathered on the ground and started picking the teams. Soon there was a slight argument about who will pick the team. They decided that person who had bought the most important object to play the game, will pick the team.
Time passed by and they couldn’t decide which is the most important thing.
Then they decided, will start playing the game with all the objects the boys have bought and one by one will get rid of objects and see finally which is more important for playing the game.
And finally, they replaced football with old tin and kept playing.
While they were playing the game, a father and son were passing nearby. Seeing this, the father said to his son “Son, see the boys, and learn from the kids. Without football, they were managing to play football, even though they never going to able to improve the game by playing with those objects”.
The boys nearby heard him saying this and soon realized that because of their personal ego and individual pride they were not able to enjoy themselves and play a proper football match even though they have all the necessary kits for playing.
At that moment all the boys decided that we will push their ego and selfishness aside and start playing the match again with proper football kits.
The match really went well, with each one of them concentrated on enjoying and improving their game.
