Once upon a time 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 farmer’s well, or you
take that out of his well immediately.”
The man understood, that his trick has failed. Birbal has outwitted him.

Hello Pavita,

absolutely fascinated by the city, it is really awesome! As you know, London is the capital city of
England and it is on the River Thames. Anna and I are staying in nice center.
On the first day of our stay here, we spent a fortune on the flight on famous London Eye. In only 30
minutes we saw more than fifty London’s most famous landmarks! The London Eye, which is the symbol
of the city is the biggest observation wheel worldwide. After the flight, Anna and I went to watch
Changing the Guard, which takes place inside the railings of Buckingham Palace. The Queen’s guard is
always accompanied by a band and the ceremony lasts 45 minutes. It was really amazing! Next, we took
some photos of the House of Parliament, Big Ben, and Westminster Abbey. And we had nice walk along the
riverside in the evening. I was mesmerized by London at night. That’s all from me now.

With Love,
Deiva

your well.” Asked the old man.
“Hey, the old poor man. I don’t want you to take my water. Any drop of my water is only for me.
No one can take any of them. Go away!” said Bagenda Endit.
The man went away. He used his stick to walk. He stopped by Bagenda Endit’s house yard, put his
stick on the ground and shouted, “Bagenda Endit, you don’t want to loose of your water. Now I will give
you more water. “

I have an unforgettable story. It happened four years ago. I got up very early and went to the library
because the exams were around the corner. The library was full of people and no empty seat. Therefore, I left my
bag on the desk to reserve my seat and went out to eat lunch.
When I came back, my bag was disappeared. I asked some person sitting around the chair where I put mu
bag. But nobody knew. There was not much money in it but all the books that I had to read for the exam were
in it. I got very nervous. I rushed to the information station and told the guard that my bag was stolen. At the
same time, another person ran and told the guard same things. Then we started to watch the earlier monitor
video together. However, we all astonished at the fact that two different thieves got action in a day. Two thieves
in the library in one day were too much. Now, I became more careful about my personal property. No matter
what is on my bag and where I go, I always carry my bag!
