Better late than never tells us that sometimes in life we miss some opportunities, but that does not mean we should never give a try.
Better late than never story
This is a story about an old man who lived in a village. He had two sons and one daughter. They were all well settled in their city life. His children would send him money every month so that he did not have any crisis. They also used to send letters to know about his well being.
Once in a year his sons and daughter would come to pay a visit to him but for the rest of the year his only source of communication was the letters. sometimes he would go to the post master of the village to read the letters for him because he did not know to read and write. The postmaster always used to help the old man reading and writing the letters for him. You may also read: God help those who help themselves
But unfortunately that post master died and a young postmaster got appointed. That young postmaster was a rude person who did not want to help the man. Slowly his way of communication with his children got cut off. He use to remain very upset.
One day the head master of the village school came to him and asked about his disappointment. The old man told him that because of his being illiterate he is facing trouble to get in touch with his children. He described how he never went to school because of his commitments towards his family. After listening to the his problem, the head master gave him a solution that instead of asking help from others he should once again start going to school and read and write.
The old man said everybody would laugh at him at this age studying. The headmaster told is better late than never. So following his advice the man joined the night school and started reading and writing. within few months he started writing letters to his children and getting their answers too. By then he did not have to go to anyone to read the letter. That day he was clear on the proverb that better late than never.
Answer:
The plans for Washington, D.C., the capital of the United States, always included space reserved for honoring George Washington. But it was not until after Washington's death that funds were raised to begin such an undertaking. The Washington National Monument Society sought both money and designs, with Robert Mills submitting the winning idea.
As a nod to the Society's challenge for a monument that would be 'unparalleled in the world,' Mills looked to the ancient Egyptians, who are world-famous for their architectural achievements. An obelisk is a tapered column that, in an ancient Egyptian symbolism, represents the place from which the world was created. It's symbolically related to the sun and the cycle of rebirth, with attention paid to the obelisk's position on Earth so that the rising and setting sun brighten its top. Obelisks were erected to honor kings and gods, so an obelisk was a fitting choice to show deference to the father of the country.
I think this should be good.
