    I always used to think of seven kings in a kingdom, which my grandmother used to tell me a story about all the seven kings and how they were like. I often used to read a lot of story books when I was a kid, mostly. My grandmom used to say these stories when I was going for bed and it used to be my daily routine. This story tells us a lot about how we should live in our lives and how we should pursue our studies and how we should be practising in what we are doing. I like the story mainly as it shows us how important it is for us to be a good human being. The experience which we get from these stories are very reliable and we use them to our daily routine and which can make our life better.

    My friend recently narrated me a story of a major. This story was about his life's history. A major named Mukund. So this story falls completely about him and his achievements and his career failures, ups and downs and the roller coaster journey of his life. My friend's name is Prabhucharan. He's not only my friend, he's also a cousin. So recently we had a train to Ooty. It's about one hour. So I asked him for a story. Then he started to narrate me this one. And to be honest, I immediately fell in love with the character Mukund. And to addition, not only Mukund's character, but the female character, which made me remember the story very significantly. The female character is a small town girl who does anything and everything for his boyfriend named Mukund. Mukund is an average middle class man. In addition, his father always wanted him to become an engineer. Despite his father's wish, he always wanted to follow his passion of becoming an army officer. So he constantly struggled hard and put all his efforts to be one. Apart from this story, the female character is the one I really admire a lot because in every moment of Mukund, she's there from starting to Levant, to Major and finally his life story. So this story...

    The story was about an old lady who had poisoned a young woman. This is actually said by my friend to me during an excursion trip. She have witnessed the incident also and the lady used to live far away from the village and no one used to take care of the lady. None of the villagers know where she actually came from and it's very difficult for them to trace her also. However, she used to slowly interact with the people and she started slowly socializing into the village and became the dearest of all children. Despite that, her envious cunning thoughts were still running in her mind. She thought of killing a child just to extract the serum and make her look younger. The most notorious or else the most disheartening statement she had ever told. The lady with the culprit plan inside had started collecting information about the child more and she also informed the child to come visit her frequently. The child, being innocent creature, believed the old lady and went back one day to see whether her beloved friend or beloved grandma is doing good or not.

    As a kid, I used to read a lot of story books. These stories were mostly Panchatantra and Jataka tales. These stories are about animals narrating stories. It happens between animals. So the most amazing part of it is, the stories act like animals narrating or animals talking to each other, which is very fascinating. Because we only see humans talking, so we don't... As a child, I was curious about animals having a conversation, and that was something that kept on my toes. And I wanted to know more about it, and I kept reading a lot of Jataka tales and Panchatantra tales. These animal stories helped me learn morals and many other values. So I remember it fondly even today because I am a teacher. So when I teach these tales to my children, it resonates really well with me because it's been my childhood, and I've enjoyed reading all these kind of books during my childhood time. I fondly remember how I used to become one of the characters from those stories, and I used to even talk to dogs and cats, and it used to be one of my favorite memories. So still today, since it's become a part of my teaching career, I happily remember those sweet memories of mine.

    Oh fuck! What is going on? What it was about? Today I am going to tell you about a story which was told by my grandmother. It was about the thirsty crow and it has many features and many moral values in it. It was about a thirsty crow. We all have read this story but as the topic is today that somebody told me, I will tell you this. So she told me that there was a thirsty crow who was very thirsty and he was finding water to drink. Somehow he saw a pot which was filled with water but it was halfly filled. When he came near to it, he tried to drink but his face was not up to the water level. He tried to drink it but he failed many times. After that he tried to put the stones in the water and somehow the water gets up and he drank the water. I got the value from it that we should never feel ourselves fail in something. We should try until we get success in something. So the story was very good that my grandmother told me and I always learn the moral things from that story in my life. If I am doing some work, I fail, I try again and again until I got success. So this is the story that my grandmother told me and I use the moral of it in my whole life.

My feeling after listening this is, I am so grateful to listen and I lost myself and started crying because at last he was died. It was very bad news for the family. She has a daughter, her age is about 6 years.

    I want to talk about a story which was told by one of my friend. Basically he used to live next to my room and his name is Aditya. He told me a scary story. It was a year 2019 when he was living with his family on the two wheeler. So basically he saw a girl over there who was asking for a ride. Then he gave her a ride. After few minutes the girl suddenly vanishes. Then he realized that she was a ghost. She was murdered 2 years ago by 2-3 guys. So basically that girl used to take lift from all the people who were traveling on that way. So that story was quite scary for me because I also suffer same situation when I was traveling on a car. I suddenly saw a girl who suddenly vanishes in 2-3 seconds. So overall it was quite scary experience. And it is also very adventurous and it is also full of goosebumps. So I want to say just one thing. I don't want to face a similar issue because it's not good for my heart and my mental peace. Moments like this do not let me sleep.
