Summary in Hindi :

 एक पिता द्वारा अपने पुत्र को लिखे गये पत्र के रूप में है। पिता द्वारा यह पत्र उस समय लिखा गया है जब उसका पुत्र स्कूल में प्रवेश ले रहा है। पिता ने अपने पुत्र को इस पत्र में अनेक शिक्षाप्रद बातें कहीं हैं। पत्र में सदैव आशावान रहने की सीख दी गयी है। जिन स्थितियों को आप बदल नहीं सकते, उन्हें सहन करने की सीख दी गयी है। यह भी शिक्षा दी गयी है कि कभी भी भविष्य को खराब मानकर नहीं चलना चाहिए।  कभी भी किसी की गरीबी का मजाक नहीं बनाना चाहिए। दूसरों के कष्ट में आनन्द नहीं उठाना चाहिए। हमें दुनिया से उतना सब प्राप्त करने की उम्मीद नहीं करनी चाहिए जो हमें अपने माता-पिता से प्राप्त होता है। सच्चा गुण ही सच्ची बुद्धिमत्ता है। जीवन की चुनौतियों व कष्टों का सामना करो वह भी बिना शिकायत के।
