Money and Peace


Long time ago, two friends lived together in a village named: Beeru. Both friends were known to each other since long; hence they were very close to each other. Incidentally, both of them were very poor and unemployed, and so, they used to search for a suitable job for each of them.
One day, one of them named: Raju found a good job that pays him a handsome salary along with other perks. While other friend named: Rajesh remained where it was. Raju joined his job and gradually improved his lifestyle.
Overwhelming money slowly took him away from Rajesh, who was once his closest friend. Rajesh, still, could find a descent work, hence did whatever he gets to live his life. He even stopped meeting Raju coz of his growing status and money power, which departed two close friends.
As Raju was growing day by day, he is also getting the victim of over possessiveness about his money; perhaps, he started being too much concerned for his wealth and often afraid of losing it. His wealth became so important for him that he could not even sleep in the night coz of his distress about his wealth.
On the other hand, Rajesh was living his lifestyle comfortably, though he was lacking the money and wealth. One day, Raju decided to give away a descent part of his wealth to Rajesh, so he went to Rajesh and gave him a bag full of money, and told him, “You’re my best friend, and I can’t see you in a dearth, so please accept a gift from my side and change your lifestyle.” Rajesh surprised but accepted the money and used it for his well growing.
Rajesh noticed a considerable change in his life after getting money, coz he started feeling too many phobias for his money, perhaps, he stopped sleeping the whole night in fear of losing his money as Raju used to have.

He realized the fact that he is becoming possessive to his money, and so, he decided to return money back to his friend Raju. He went to Raju and said, “My friend thanks for your concerns about my dearth, but I can’t keep your money coz it is taking away my jollity and easygoing lifestyle.” He also said, “You did not take care of me when you were growing; now why you start thinking about me? Is this the reason? You also want me to have a sleepless night? No, my friend we’re better as a stranger.” And he left. Raju then realized what he had lost in return of his wealth.

Dad’s Blessings short story


BibleThere was a place in Banglore where a rich man used to live with his lone son. His son was good at studies; hence father expected him to be a successful businessman, but on his own – not on father’s support.
Son was very fond of sports cars; perhaps he had dreamed of having a sports car on becoming a graduate someday. Years passed by, and son reached to the final year of his graduation, hence he decided to look around and find a sports car for him, hoping his father would gift it to him when he’d complete his graduation. He found an interesting contemporary sports car with all the features he was looking for.
Suddenly, the day came when he was going to have his graduation degree formally. He took the blessings of his father and went to the college hoping when he would return; his father would offer him a sports car!
He took his graduation degree, and returned to home and told his father that he finally became a graduate and asked his father for his gift. Father proudly grates his son and gave him a gift packed with a shining cover.
Son surprised and opened the pack; he disappointed to see a Bible inside the pack embracing his name in gold. He yelled on his father, “Is this what you gift to me?” He threw the pack and left the home with thorough frustration. He never came back. Many years later he became a successful rich businessman having all the blessings of the life, like a beautiful house, sports car, and other luxuries.
Once, he decided to return to his father, since he was never gone back to his home after his graduation day. Perhaps, before he could go to his home, he got a telegram stating his father has been passed away leaving all his wealth to his son, and so; he has to come back to claim his entire wealth.
Son returned the home and surprised to see that the home was as it is, as it was, when he left it. He curiously searched everywhere and found the bible his father gifted him. He opened it and found a hanging key on the last page of the Bible.

The key was of his favorite sports car he dreamed of on his graduation. Key was along with a note written, “God Bless you my son, Bible is more important that this key, hence I’m attaching key on the last page so you can worth Bible more than car key” Son felt guilty for leaving his father and not honoring his blessings!

POLIO DROPS DATES

LET US ERADICATE POLIO FROM OUR COUNTRY

Polio is a disease that has caused paralysis in millions of children worldwide over the years. Polio is caused by a virus that lives in the throat and intestinal tract. It is spread mainly through contact with the feces of an infected person (for instance, by changing diapers).

Some children who get polio don’t feel ill at all. Others have the symptoms of a common cold, sometimes accompanied by pain and stiffness in the neck, back and legs. But some
children get severe muscle pain, and within a week can be paralyzed — in other words, loose the use of their muscles. Usually paralysis affects a child’s legs, but it can also affect other muscles, including those that control breathing.

Depending on the sites of paralysis, polio can be classified as spinal, bulbar, or spino-bulbar disease. Progression to maximum paralysis is rapid (2–4 days), is usuallyassociated with fever and muscle pain, and rarely continues after the patient’s temperaturehas returned to normal.

Spinal paralysis is typically asymmetric and moresevere proximally than distally. Deep tendon reflexes are absent or diminished. Bulbarparalysis can compromise respiration and swallowing.

Paralytic polio is fatal in 2%–10% of cases. After the acute episode, many patients recover at least some musclefunction and prognosis for recovery can usually be established within 6 months afteronset of paralytic manifestations.

There is no treatment for polio, and some children die from it. The incubation period for poliomyelitis is commonly 6 to 20 days with a range of 3 to 35 days.
