Everything
in life that appears to be attractive does not necessarily have great value . so
judging by appearances can be misleading . This same fact can be said in
another way : A book cannot be judged by its cover . A book with a very
attractive cover may not have readable material inside . On the other hand , a
book with a very dull cover may be very interesting . This is true of almost
everything in life . A show that is well
advertised may be dull and boring . And a movie that has received very little
publicity may be quite entertaining
.
So
we must not jump to conclusions about the merits or demerits or anything purely
on the basis of the way it is packaged . this is the age of advertisement .Makers
of products try to show their products in the best light so that people will
buy them . But this does not necessarily mean that the product is well worth
the money .even when we judge people we should not do so by their looks . We
must not get swayed by their flashy styles or dashing ways .Gandhiji wore just
a dhoti , but he is still held in great reverence throughout the world .
Abraham Lincoln was not endowed with good looks . But he is considered by far
the greatest American president . Mother Teresa had a very simple appearance . But
people all over the world remember and revere her . So it is only fair to say
that all that glitters is not gold .
