One day, Sheikh was going to a nearby town. On the way to the town, Sheikh saw that an old man was carrying a large bundle of clothes. As Sheikh passed him, the old man asked, “Son, if you help me carry my luggage to the town I will pay you thirty rupees.” Sheikh happily accepted the offer. The moment he placed the luggage on his head and started walking, Sheikh started dreaming. He dreamt, ‘I will buy a lot of kites from these thirty rupees and win the kite flying contest. Soon, with that prize money, I will buy a horse and ride it at a high speed. Tabdik Tabdik, Tabdik…’ Sheikh did not realise that while dreaming he had entered a mud pit. He lost his balance and soiled all the clothes that he was carrying. The old man was very upset, but Sheikh said furiously, “You are worrying about the clothes! What about the loss that I have faced? I lost my horse; do you know?” So saying, he walked off, leaving the old man wondering, what to do next!
