The Soldier


Navneet Vats was a soldier who loved his family and country equally. Navneet met his soulmate when he attended a function at a friend's place in the year 1994. Naveneet and Shivani Singh felt a connection at their very first sight. They did not talk to each other, but their eyes spoke a lot in the two and a half hours they spent there. They were not able to meet each other for a couple of months. Shivani and Navneet met each other in another function hosted by another mutual friend. Within the next 4 months they met a couple of times with their common friends. Navneet and Shivani met each other without any friends twice. They realized they have a special connection. When Naveent came to his hometown for the next vacation, he stopped by Shivani's and proposed to her. Navneet had become a Major in the Indian Army. by 1998 they tied the knot. The couple had a happy life. Their first born, Inayath was a blessing for the couple. They were living a dream come true life. Navneet had his posting in Srinagar. 

It was on 20th November. Telecom building in Srinagar was attacked by terrorists and even a couple of them managed to hide within. Navneet was ordered to take care of the situation. Navneet along with 11 other soldiers were dispatched to the scene. Navneet did not hold back on his duty or responsibility, neither did he have second thoughts about anything else. He proceeded without any hesitation and managed to bring down 5 from the terrorist troop at the cost of his own life. There was no mistake.

Navneet exhaled his last breath for the sake of our nation. Shivani's heart was broken into million pieces when the army office broke the news to her. Shivani could not control her emotion, but quickly she remembered Navneets words 'You are wife of a soldier. You must be willing to face anything, so, remain strong'. 

Shivani gathered her bits and pieces and stood up. Shivani now teaches in the Army public school. She wants the young buds to be proud soldiers for the nation.


Each soldier at the border is willing to die for our nation, die for us

We owe them the peaceful life we enjoy in our comforts

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...

STORY.1 It is not necessary that time favours you every time. Sometimes, it teaches a lesson : How to lead a disciplined life through difficulties Once there were two youngsters, one had an office job and the other, being blind, used to beg on the pavement of the office complex where the other worked.  The employee was never appreciated by anyone in his office and so he was demotivated. He had a tough time at his work place. Everyday, the employee on his way to and from his office, watched the blind beggar. One day he saw the begger with a note saying 'I am Blind'. The employee walked up to the begger and made a small change in the note and carried on with his day.  At the end of the day, on his way back from office the employee  was curious to know if his small change in the note made any difference to the beggar. As he neared the place, the begger recognized the employee with his foot steps and said  " I understand you are the one who cam...

World moves on without you: There lived a teacher in a small village. He had a wife, a son who was doing his higher studies and daughter who was ready to get married. He was living a contented life when a thought came to his mind that totally disturbed his peaceful existence.  He suddenly thought that he was the reason the whole family was happy. He felt that things wouldn’t be the same for them in his absence. This thought bred in him and over a few days turned into an ego in himself. One day when he was introspecting himself as a teacher he realized that he had become egoistic but it was already late as the ego had got the better of him already.

The yogi said that the world remains the same although many have come and left before this and continue to do so. After the talk, the teacher approached the yogi and confesses to him that hes already suffering w...
