A Father was trying to read the newspaper, but his little son kept pestering him.

Finally, the father grew tired of this and, tearing a page from the newspaper – one that bore a map of the world – he cut it into several pieces and handed them to his son.

‘I’ve given you a map of the world and I want to see if you can put it back together correctly.’

He resumed his reading, thinking that the task would keep the child occupied for the rest of the day.

However, a quarter of an hour later, the boy returned with the map.

‘Has your mother been teaching you geography?’ asked his father in astonishment.

‘I don’t even know what that is,’ replied the boy. ‘But there was a photo of a man on the other side of the page, so I put the man back together and found I’d put the world back together too.’

एकजना पीता पत्रिका पढ्न खोज्दैथियो।  तर सानो छोराले पढ्न दिईरहेकोथिएन।  अन्तमा पिताले विश्व नक्शा भएको एउटा ठुलो कागजलाई टुक्रा टुक्रा गरी छोरालाई दिंदै भन्यो,"यो टुक्राहरू जोडेर फेरी विश्वको नक्शा बनाऊ  ल।"

अब यो मिलाउन दिनभरी लाग्छ भनि सोच्दै पीता फेरी पत्रिका पढ्न तर्फ फर्के। तर छोरा करिब पौने एक घण्टा जति मा नै विश्व नक्शा सहित फर्किए। 

"तिम्रो आमाले तिमीलाई भूगोल पढ़ाउदैछ  कि क्या हो?", पिताले सोधे। 

"खै मलाई त भूगोल भनेको पनि थाहा छैन। तपाइले दिनुभएको कागजको पछाडितिर एउटा मान्छेको मुहारको तस्बिर थियो।  मैले त्यो मान्छेको मुहार मिलाएँ र उता फर्काउदा विश्व नक्शा आफै मिल्न आयो।"

पाठ : मान्छे ठिक भयो भने विश्व ठिक हुने रहेछ।
