The Highest Degree

I knocked the doors of school to schools college to colleges university to universities with the request to teach me and award me with the highest degree to make my life a perfect and a praiseworthy. All taught me awarded me the degree with an outstanding marks. But after leaving the institution I found those degrees were useless simply a piece of paper unable to make me stand even on my feet, giving me bread and shelter is quite afar. Incidentally I met a traveler who was on his eternal journey. I requested him to let me know the institution, that can award me with the highest degree, to make me self dependent with a worthy life. The traveler spoke softly the entire creation is an institution where you can learn and get the highest degree to make your life a worthy. Again I asked very humbly the name of Principal of the institution he said; his name is God. So, as an obedient student I approached the Principal and prayed to teach me and award me with the degree befitting to my life to be worthy, the highest degree ever I could be awarded with. With a mild smile the Principal of the institution said the highest degree is Submission. But to get the highest degree you have to cross so many examination. The first step is Sincerity like to recognize alphabet which will help throughout. The second step is Courage giving you strength to proceed. Third step is Patience; will teach you not to be deviated from your path. Next step is very important will make you capable to break the iron gate the degree thus awarded is called Devotion. On obtaining the certificate of Devotion, will be eligible for the highest degree that is Submission. If you can get the certificate of Submission you will be perfect eligible to sublime yourself with the entire creation and your life will be a praiseworthy. I realized indeed a toughest exercise.
