Summary of the Graduation Present

A young man was expecting that he will receive a car from his father as a graduation gift. Disappointedly he got a leather- bound Bible from his father, and then he left home angrily. After his success in business many years later, he had everything including a beautiful and wonderful family. He realized that his father was so old. He had no sooner seen his father than his father died. The young man was so regret and sad to know that news. He had informed that he will possess everything of his father. But tearfully he found the Bible which was his graduation gift from his father. There was a key with the car which he admired.
