EAST OR WEST,  HOME IS THE BEST

All are attached to their homes.  We cannot forget the place where we spent our childhood. Just the thought of it itself brings fond memories in our mind. We are forced to live in other countries for livelihood. But how can we forget our native land. The sweet remembrance of it vibrates our pulses when we remember our home.  A bird leaves its nest early in the morning in search of food but returns to the same place at dusk.  Except our house, all places give us only a short-term happiness.  Western countries are noted for their comforts of life while eastern countries are known for their culture and civilization. An easterner cannot get happiness until he returns home. Westerners also experience the same.

All this shows that home is the best place to live in.

He may be either lazy or ignorant.  Actually in order to show his smartness he pass the mistakes on others.  A person can become a good workman by practice and perseverance.
