All that glitter is not gold
Abstract: outwardly appearances are sometimes deceptive, its not always possible to make judgement about the real worth of a thing by its outer appearance. Many things made out of inferior materials are given a nice shine outside, in order to deceive the costumer. It becomes quite difficult to know what is contained inside this body. This outer shine hides the defect of this object. That is why it’s a famous saying that all that glitter is not gold. In life many individuals have fallen victim of following shinny things that do not last which will at last lead to danger, many crooks by their outward looks and behaviour make themselves appear to be gentle men and noble, but the reverse is the case. In the work of life one should learn the lesson that outward appearances may not always be the truth. We will relate this in a play where a young girl lost her life because she the shinny things that came her way.
