#36. The origin of Olympics.
Man and war are inseparable!
Men simply have to invade into another person’s personal space, personal land, territory, village, country…whichever is possible!
Eventually the God of War got sick and tired of these constant wars.
He wanted the real wars to be converted to mock wars between the countries… retaining the love for one’s country and patriotism, fighting for a title, but all these all without bloodshed and violence.
That was when Olympics was born!
Everything is warlike-right from the preparation but the properties used are not deadly weapons!
What a wonderful idea conceived by the God of War!
#37. A showdown!
The hero of this story lived in a village bordering a wild forest. He was destined to be a lucky hunter! Wherever he would spread his net, he was sure to catch a deer.
He hated the life of hunter-killing innocent animals for their flesh and skin! He dicided to have a showdown with the God of Destiny!
The man caught fine deer in his net which he had spread in the forest. He kept a portion for himself and presented the rest of the deer to the villagers.
The next day he spread his net in front of his hut. A deer came out of the forest just to get caught in the net! The whole village enjoyed the feast of deer flesh.
On the third day he spread the net on the roof of his hut. Surely no deer would climb on the thatched roof of a hut.
The God of Destiny was puffing and cursing since he had to carry a deer to place it in the net. He climbed on the fragile roof, carrying the heavy deer and somehow climbed down unhurt after placing the deer in the net.
On the fourth day the man spread his net on top of a tree full of thorn on its trunk. The God of Destiny had a tough time, puffing, panting, cursing and bleeding before his supreme task was completed and the deer was placed in the net.
On the fifth day the man spread the net on top of a tall tree and smeared its trunk with Castor oil.
Destiny had finally met his match. To carry a deer and climb a tall thin tree smeared with caster oil!
He ran to the hut of the man, knelt to the man praying him to spare him of any further troubles!
A God kneeling down to a man!!!
The man agreed to spare the God of Destiny of any further troubles – provided he would rewrite his own destiny.
The God of Destiny promptly agreed.
Both of them were happy to get off each other’s throat at last.
#38. DO YOU WANT TO KILL TIME?
AND LOOK VERY BUSY?
FLOG A DEAD HORSE!
NOTHING WILL HAPPEN TO IT.
AND NOTHING WILL HAPPEN TO YOU EITHER.
ALL THE SAME YOU CAN LOOK VERY BUSY
IN THE COMPANY OF YOUR LIKE MINDED FRIENDS!
#39. Disgusting disguises!
I always used to get mused by the disguises used in movies.
A large wart on the cheek or chin,
A pair goggles hiding the forehead and cheeks,
A simple scarf,
A pencil thin mustache.
a goatee,
A hat,
A handkerchief around the neck!!!
#40. Is Might always Right?
Do we become vulnerable by
1. trusting people,
2. by respecting people,
3. by obliging their requests,
4. by feeling as close as a family-
even when NOT related in anyway?
May be we do!
The world is funny.
It fears a snake and offers it milk and eggs
but milks a cow at times letting the calves starve!
Does that mean that “Might is Right”
and all soft and kind people will have to face
various problems in everyday live?
May be it is true!
