There is no shortcut for success

                                   There is no shortcut for success

Ramu is the student of class 7 . He is finding mathematics very difficult. All these years in class, he is passing in the exam of mathematics with border marks.
But now he is in class 7 . He must do well in the exam if he want to get into a good high school. But what to do?  He is finding the mathematics sums as monsters !
He is trying to concentrate on the subject but is of no use. One day , his mother gave him 2 Rs and asked him to bring table salt from nearby shop.
Ramu went to market . While he was  in market , he observed a man who was selling holy threads. Man was claiming that with the holy thread , anything what we wish to be done will be fulfilled ! By hearing that Ramu was very happy.
He went near the man and man repeated the same thing. Ramu asked him the cost of it . Man said just Rs. 2 ! Exactly what Ramu is having .
Ramu asked him what to do and how to wear? Man said after wearing it , Ramu has to go to a temple and everyday he has to pray there morning and evening . His wish will be fulfilled in coming days ! Ramu gave the money.
He wore the holy thread and went to nearby temple and he prayed that in coming school test , he has to pass the exam with good marks.
He returned home. His mother asked him about salt and Ramu said that he lost the money accidentally . Mother didnt ask more questions as she was busy with daily chores.
Ramu began to think that because of holy thread , his mother believed his story. His confidence grew. Every morning and evening he was going to temple and praying.
Ramu's parents thought Ramu had finished his revisions and then he is going to temple for mind refreshment. Exams came and Ramu faced the exam without preparation.
Ramu this time , not only failed in mathematics but also in all subjects ! Then he realized that there is no shortcut way for success . Only the hard work will help . That time , even God will shower his blessings on us.
