Autobiography

I clearly remember the days when the life started telling me about this world . As a toddler I did not know how to live for what and why . Like most of the kids my father was my ideal . I used to imitate him in all my actions . My mother and father were very loving towards me as a matter of fact . I started the journey of my practical life by joining school as every child does . But I was not an easy-going child who takes things casually

. I used to like seeing documentaries instead of watching football or baseball games on television . One day I was playing with an instrument rubbing it against a magnet . I was only five at that time . I did it several times and felt something bizarre . I tried it again and again and asked my father about it and later it came to my knowledge the value of magnetic force in today 's science .

His interest forced me to join him in watching the documentary which was on the life and achievements of Benjamin Franklin . My father was fond of Benjamin Franklin , one of the founding fathers of the United States of America Franklin was a leading writer , publisher , inventor , diplomat scientist , and philosopher . He is well-known for his experiments with electricity and lightning , and for publishing "Poor Richard 's Almanac and the HYPERLINK "http /www .earlyamerica .com /earlyamerica /past /past .html " Pennsylvania Gazette . He served as Postmaster General under the Continental Congress , and later became a prominent abolitionist . He is credited with inventing the lightning rod , the Franklin Stove , and bifocals ' One can hardly imagine performing all these roles in one 's life . Upon my queries and interest in Benjamin which was only due to my father , he told me about Mr Franklin , especially about his achievements in various disciplines . At...
