VALUE OF ATTIRE / DRESS DOESN'T MAKE ONE GREAT

Sheikh Saadi was a great poet in Iran. He used to lead a very simple life. Once on his way to the court of the king of Iran, he took a shelter in a nobleman's house for a night. He was then in very simple dressed. The servants of that house took him as an ordinary man. They did not care for his comfort at all. They gave him very simple food. Saadi felt very sad but did not tell anything to anybody and somehow passed the night. In the morning, he started for the court. He reached the court and stayed there for some days. On his way back home, he again took shelter in that nobleman's house. This time he was in rich clothes. The nobleman took him to be an elite one as he noticed him in gorgeous dress. He welcomed him very cordially and showed him profound respect. After sometime, the servants came with rich food for him. Saadi understood the reason why he was treated so nicely. So, he decided to teach him a good lesson. When he sat down to eat, a strange thing happened. In stead of eating the delicious foods, he began to put them into his pockets. The nobleman as well as his servants was surprised at this. The nobleman asked politely, "What are you doing Sir?" Saadi replied, "I'm doing the right thing. Some days ago when I came to your house in plan dress, nobody cared for my comfort. Now, I'm in gorgeous dress and all of you are showing respect to me and serving rich food. I think it is not I but my dress which has earned this food. So, I am putting them into my pockets." Hearing this, the nobleman understood his fault. He was very much ashamed and begged Saadi's pardon.
