God's will
A rich doctor set off to Mumbai from Delhi to take part in a conference. The doctor was supposed to be the lead in the presentation. He had prepared well and he was excited to share the information he had collected and prepared. The doctor reached the airport and he had done the check-in. He was all the way excited to make his way to Mumbai to attend to the conference. Half an hour post the flight's take off the flight experienced challenges due to poor weather and they were forced to land elsewhere. The captain announced that they are left with fewer choices so keeping safety in mind, they are landing. 
The doctor became really annoyed at the situation. As soon as the flight landed the doctor approached the airport authorities expressing his annoyance about the situation. Another gentleman at the airport who happened to be a co-passenger recognized him and walked up to the doctor and identified him as Dr. Patnaik and told him that he was also supposed to attend the same conference, but due to constraints they were facing he offered an option that if Dr. Patnaik can afford to travel by car he can make it to the conference by time. Dr. Patnaik booked a cab to Mumbai and started his journey. 
Even by the road, the journey was really difficult and after 2 hours of journey the cab driver realized that they are moving in the wrong direction and the driver with great courage confessed this to the doctor. The rain, thunder and storm were so heavy. The cab stopped in front of a house. Dr. Patnaik went to the house to find a very old lady who was praying. Doctor sought her permission to get in, the lady responded to the doctor to come in. 
Doctor entered the house and asked the lady if he can make a phone call as his phone is out of charge. The lady excused herself as there was no electricity and offered him tea or something hot to drink which will help them with the climate. The doctor found the old lady so generous. The doctor thanked God for being safe. The lady immediately expressed that she would not thank God which made the doctor curious to know the reason.
The lady gestured to the little boy sleeping at the corner of the room. The boy was her grandson and his parents had died in an accident. The boy suffered from a chronic cardiac disease and their only hope was to seek help from a doctor in Delhi. They had been there thrice but failed to get an appointment. The doctors name was Dr. Patnaik. 
The doctor suddenly realized the day’s crisis was his destiny and with eyes filled with tears he said to her that he himself was the doctor they were looking for and helped the boy.
Your planned destination may not be your destiny

2.     Mother's Love It was a hot summer day. There was a chemist along with his assistant doing brisk trade under the mid-noon hot sun. The pharmacist noticed an old woman across the road, staring at the shop for a long time. The shopkeeper suggested to the assistant to take care of the customers in the line and he went to check on the old lady.  The chemist crossed the road and approached her and asked her “why you are standing here alone, do you need any help from me”. The lady said she was fine. She had a son who lives in the city with his wife and three children. He and his family came and visited her every summer but this time he called her up last night and said he is going to a hill station with his family so he will not be visiting her this summer. He might come next summer. Saying this, her wrinkled grey eyes shed tears of pain out of a broken heart.  The shopkeeper was muted for a moment and he had no words for her. The mother held h...

The life each wished for Once there lived two farmers in a village. The farmers were friends and they worked really hard. They, more or less had the same share of land in the village and eventually with time, both of them died in the same period.  After their death both the farmers were in their after life. God asked both the farmers the same question. The first farmer was asked: how was his life and how could have God made it better for him. The farmer was so annoyed and disgraced with all the hardship he had in his life. The farmer said he had no luxury, he and his family barely had anything to enjoy. They struggled to manage each day. God kept quiet and asked the farmer what he wanted to become in his next life. The farmer wished to be someone who is unquestioned and who people gave money to. God blessed him and granted his desire.  God approached the other farmer with the same question. The farmer said he was really glad with the life God had given him. The farmer thanked ...

Strong roots Sangeetha and her husband were staying in a housing colony. Next doors to them lived an old man. Everyone addressed him as grandpa. One day a man who sold plants was in the colony. Sangeetha and the grandpa bought the same plant and planted it in their yard. Sangeetha had her education in agriculture and knew everything about the plant. Sangeetha watered the plant and used the right fertilizers and pesticides for her plant and she was so prompt with her schedule. After days both the plants were easily distinguishable. Sangeetha's plant was so green and flourished beautifully. Grandpa's plant was barely anything.  One evening, thunder and storm rampaged the area, everyone and everything was affected. The whole night heavy wind blew. The next morning grandpa and Sangeetha came out to check their plants. Sangeetha's plant was totally damaged, even the last strand of root was pulled out of the soil by the wind. Grandpa's plant on the other hand was just bent, n...
