A MEMORABLE DAY IN MY LIFE :


A real rainy day it was or perhaps , I should call it a rainy evening, since it had become dark , there should have been light enough to play cricket. A light storm having started . I ran about the house from room to room shutting the windows and fastening the bolts of the doors. I was alone in the house then, preparing for an exam, The other members of the family had gone to a wedding reception.



Having shut myself up, I sat at my writing table and tried to think of a likely topic for the next days exam. But I could not concentrate . The rain came down in torrents , almost with a physical force it slashed urgently the window panes . The sound of falling water drowned all my personal thoughts, just then , went off the supply of electricity I found myself drowned in blackness , and full of shivery down my spine.


They say I am rather romantic, perhaps I get easily excited. but that evening , I did have the strongest experience of my life. i groped in the dark for the torch and somehow found it. but it's battery had run down , and it thickered faintly only for a few second.


I hurried to a window which faced a narrow lane below and threw it open to let in some street lights. I stood for sometimes launching at the cold grills. At once , I saw it ! yes , I distinctly saw How ! The same unruly mass of hair, the tough beard , the same limb in his walk, and the same dark brown shawl wrapped about him. it was my beloved grandpa ! yet he had died last year and had been properly burnt in pyre.


was it a spirit, or had he come back to life again ? it was a rainy night when they took him to the crematorium ?...............I could not help crying out, my beloved grandpa.

The figure looked upon a distant height , fell on its profile and distinctly it seemed to me that there were no eyes in his sockets, but two deep hallows !

For long time, I became unconscious, I don't know , when I came to the sence. The tube light was blazing brightly. I thrilled as I got up, supporting myself against a table. Almost immediately , I heard the sound of a cab as soon as the door bell rang, My parents and brother returned this time. They said , it was all the doing of my romantic mind simply an optical illusion. Although they laughed ☺ at my experience , but how could I deny it ?

Hey friend!

Here is your answer

- No pain, No gain -

There were two stones, who loved their life. They were huge in size. Once, a sculptor approached one stone and asked

"Can I make a statue out of you?"

"A statue, No way. You will hammer me, and it hurts me. Also my size will be reduced. You cannot make a statue out of me"

The sculptor was very sad. He wanted to make a statue to show his skills. So, now he approached the other stone, hoping that it would help him. He asked,

" Can I make a statue out of you? "

"Hmm, a statue, sure you can, but I have one condition."

"What is it?"

" Well, Just turn me into a beautiful one." 

The sculptor readily agreed. He was very happy. So, he started hammering the stone. He beared immense pain and finally it was turned into a beautiful deity.

When, the sculptor displayed his amazing talent, to the audience, they were impressed. It was made with perfection. The manager of the district too saw the deity. He said the sculptor

" Wow, Your work is simply amazing, I would love to make a temple for this deity."

The sculptor was delighted. He lend the deity to the district manager, and earned a lot of money. A beautiful temple was built, and the deity was now treated with extreme care. The other stone which disagreed with the sculptor was now of no use, except to break coconuts on it!
