Life,s Puzzle
The garden was filled with many people of different kinds. Some were old while some were kids. In the midst rose a fountain which gave a cold breeze to the people in the garden. A 9 year old girl noticed a group of college guys having fun. They were laughing at things that the girl couldn’t understand. She looked at them and felt that her own world was not the one she liked. Regular home works crept into her dreams and killed her sleep sometimes. “I wanna be happy like them and it can happen only when i am a grown up” saying she took her way. Among the group of the guys that were having fun was a guy who was interested in a queer looking man seated in front of their bench. The man looked satisfied and self content. His face shone with a dazzling light that only people who had achieved greatness have. The boy looked at the man and then within him. ” I am wasting my time chit chatting with my friends for no reason, may be i should do something that will make me a well known person in the society” With this thought the boy’s heart became heavy and he again joined with his friends in some talks. The old man who was satisfied till now looked at the happy smiles and laughters of those young bloods. Everything was there waiting for him. All he wanted was to blink and the thing was before him. His money gave him everything but not his childhood. He gave up everything in making money but his heart was not satisfied although his body was. “Life is a puzzle” thought the old man and gazed at those people laughing and smiling.
Love Never Dies
It was winter and the oak tree which stood mighty as a king was shedding its leaves. The branches knew it was part of its cycle but couldn’t stop crying, for it was it’s love, it’s hope which kept it alive all through the year. All the oak tree could say was good bye with a heavy heart. It stood strong and stout with some of its branches being bitten by the merciless cold wind .
Spring arrived and new leaves grew on the branches. Leaves glittered in the sun. They knew nothing of themselves. All they knew was to work and prepare food and the oak tree was pleased with them.
Then summer arrived. The leaves were rejoicing in the sun and the warm breeze. In the hot sun a fire broke out in the hearts of the leaves and the tree. Both knew what was it and waited for the other to disclose. The oak tree always took the chances. So he spoke,
“Dear leaves , you gave me life andi am indebted to you. There is a special place for all of you in my heart and my heart holds a message for you…….” and the tree stopped.
“Tell us oh mighty tree, we are honoured to serve you” said the leaves.
“I love you” said the tree.
“What?” the leaves said acting as if they hated the idea, but they couldn’t it keep any longer in their heart. So they said “We are honoured to be your love oh mighty one”.
And so they danced and danced in the summer sun making the sheperds wonder why the tree swayed so much. The leaves and the oak tree both shared stories of love and kisses. But time swam too fast. It was end of summer and the leaves were becoming old.
“What is happening to us oh mighty one?” asked the leaves.
The oak knew the answer but never allowed it through his lips.
Winter arrived. Every leaf, one by one, fell dead on the ground with a cry of love for the tree . The oak tree’s heart had felt the pain before and many times. He watched his dead love on the ground and pearls of tears broke. The cycles of seasons were sorry. The wind was sorry too but still blew harder. None cared for the heart which for 20 years was played with.
The oak tree was now fed up with loving new leaves with new hopes only to see them die.The tree decided to submit its life to death. He pondered over the thought for whole winter untill spring arrived. New leaves appeared. But the tree had enough. No more pain his heart could bear. He avoided them. But the leaves kept caring neither knowing the past nor caring for the future.The tree was not to give in. But his heart needed someone to soothe it’s pain.
A new heart thumped with music in it.
Then one day in the summer the oak tree said to the leaves “I love you.”

Innocence
She was travelling to her neighbour village where her cousins lived.She took the window seat and allowed her eyes to gaze on the natural scenery. 90 years has been passed but still her strength never failed her. She thanked to the foods of the olden days which came without any adulteration. Her body was old but her soul was strong. She pitied the recent generations who were fragile.
The bus stood on a stop. A girl jumped in and took a seat near to the old lady. The old women noticed that the girls age must be around 19. She looked at the young skin which shone with brightness. Then she noticed that the young girl had a device plugged into her ears. She frowned and guessed that it should be the same device that people of her age wore.
"Pity her" she thought, "She is deaf, and needs a device to hear properly"
"Can you hear me" the old lady shouted at the top of her voice. All the passengers in the bus turned to look.
The girl looked at the old women and said "Yes I can hear, why do you ask?"
"Then why do you use the hearing aid?" asked the old women.
"It's an ipod" said the young girl.
She had never heard a thing named ipod.The old women pitied her more than before. "She is really deaf" she thought.
It's a real story , the young girl is my girl friend.

Perfect time
He was meeting her after 30 years. They sat before each other wondering what to talk.
"Do you still cherish our college days?" asked he. She looked at him and didn't reply with words, she replied with a smile. He remembered the days when he was mad about her. His heart always wanted her but he never made into words. He waited and waited for the perfect time to propose but... he ended up marrying another woman. He was afraid that she might reject her.
But now they were both married and his heart was heavy with the burden he carried. He decided to loose his feelings. It didn't matter to him that they were married and had children of their own.
"I wanted to tell you something" said he.
She nodded her head in response.
"I... always loved you from college days. I know its not correct to tell now, but I had to loosen my heart with the burden that I had carried for years." saying he waited for her to respond wildly. But she sat there motionless which her tears shook, and said,
"Even I loved you , but waited for the perfect time which never appeared"

Death
She was waiting for her grandson.It had been 15 years since she had seen him.
“He must be a man by now” she thought.
She remembered those days when as a child he would come running towards her and hug her. More than his mother he was close to her. She used to look at him and say “He will make my dreams come true”. She remembered those moments when to see him laugh she would do anything. For him her lap was the safest place on the earth. Now death was nearing her. “Just one look” thought she “and i would die peacefully.”
Someone announced the arrival of her grandson. He came and stood afar from her. She looked at him and waited for him to come and hug her. But he maintained a distance. Death was nearing her instead of her grandson.
She lifted her hand and called him near. He was indifferent. He walked away behind in the crowd without a sign. Watching this her heart broke and death took her in its arms.
Death was taking her soul through the crowd when she heard her grandson say “Thank god the old lady is dead”.
Hearing this the old woman felt she had died twice.
“Death is an end to all sufferings” saying she thanked death for taking her soul.
“He must be a man by now” she thought.

The angel fish swam always behind the golden fish. The angel fish tried many ways to impress the golden fish.
“What do you want?” asked the golden fish.
“I love you” said the angel fish.
The golden fish did not wanted to fall in love with a black one, so it said
“Why don’t you do something in a different way?”
