when the best was beaten by a glitch

Once lived a famous man Ajith. Ajith became a fame for unlocking any lock. It was believed that there is no lock that Ajith cannot open. One day there was an announcement in the city that Ajith was going to perform something amazing near the river. The public as well as the media were all geared up. 

The challenge for Ajith was : Ajith will be locked in a cage and he will be sunk in the river. He was to come out of it alive by unlocking the cage. Everyone was curious to watch it. For the sake of safety there was a buzzer in the cage like a panic button for Ajith. The show was about to begin. Ajith really had it on him, everyone were watching and he had to unlock and come out of the sunken cage. It was 4.00pm, the show began. 

Ajith was locked inside the cage. Ajith had to regulate his breathing, he had to be really focused on what is to do and what not to. Everybody was curious and worried at the same time. The act is not an easy one. Ajith was attempting such a thing for the first time. The cage was sunk as planned. Ajith held his breath. Ajith pulled out a wire from his pocket and tried to open the lock. Everyone was cheering for Ajith, but Ajith did not show up. Within no time the buzzer alarmed, people panicked. All of them wondered how could Ajith possibly fail? The cage had been pulled out quickly. Ajith was inside. He was breathing heavily. 

Ajith realised he failed for the first time. Ajith was so tired he tried to rest himself by leaning to the door as the cage was being placed to the ground and the door opened. Ajith was shocked to know that the cage was never locked and the door would have opened with a push. Ajith really didn't think about the possibility of an unlocked door.

Most of us are like Ajith in the cage. We think about the worst scenario and we hang in there giving all our efforts to unlock a door which is never locked. We put ourselves in situations and bring great burden on our own shoulders wherein a bit of positivity and hope is more than enough to make things fall in place.


All situation has a resolve, all that we need is a just bit of positivity within and hope for a better tomorrow

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...

Kutty story #61

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. At around the same time, a yogi arrived in the village and coincidentally he was speaking about controlling ones egos and vices. 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...
