EXPERIENCE COUNTS

Experience counts.
( based on an actual event)

Sailesh, the new chemistry lecturer was demonstrating an experiment to his class 11 students. 
As he was about to add some chemical salt , the aging lab attender shouted, " Sir, don't mix that, it will explode!"
Sailesh, the chemistry postgraduate scoffed at the attender contemptuously and went ahead.
Luckily, the resulting explosion didn't hurt anyone- except the postgraduate's ego.

HIS ONLY GOAL.

His only goal. Damu(short for Damodaran), was a man in his late twenties. His only goal in life, apart from praying to his favorite Lord Krishna, was to play football and score atleast one goal. But, being a chronic heart patient, he could only watch others play. Damu lived in a sleepy village in Palakkad, which, like the rest of Kerala, was crazy about the beautiful game. Damu, by now had seen many generations of youth playing football in the village playground. Every evening, he would turn up without fail to watch the game, after praying at the village Krishna temple. He would plead with the boys to let him play, only to be rebuffed by the more callous ones among them. The kinder ones would explain that it was dangerous for him to play. One day, a muscular young man- never seen before-came to watch the game. Seeing Damu, he ordered the boys to allow him in the field, threatening them with a beating if they didn't comply.  The next half hour was pure heaven for Damu. As he played ...

HEWN FROM A SINGLE ROCK

Navrathri day 7. JAI MA DURGA! Hewn from a single rock. The Durga Devi temple in this village was famous for the stone Durga hewn from a single rock. Even her crown, throne, conch, spear and other things adorning Her were from a single sculpting. She was venerated by the villagers and tourists from nearby. One day, a teenage girl named Renu went missing for a few hours. Since it was an unusual occurrence, many villagers set about, looking for her. The search ended when they found Renu, crouched in a corner, sobbing inconsolably. On questioning, she quietly pointed at a place in front of the Durga idol. To their utter amazement and shock, they found the village rowdy, Chathu lying in a pool of blood. The spear from the monolithic Durga had detached itself and pierced right through his heart. Durga devi thus protected  her innocent devotee Renu from his clutches. JAI JAGADAMBIKE

THE VEGETABLE SELLER

Navrathri day 8. JAI MA DURGA! The vegetable seller. Venu, the vegetable vendor was forlorn. Today, he had to do good sales in order to fulfil his commitment of repaying a small loan to a good friend. Though the friend wouldn't really mind, Venu was very particular on keeping his word. " Durgama, please help," He prayed, though realising at the same time that he was troubling the Goddess for trivial things. Meanwhile an old lady came and stood near him, offering to assist with the sales. Though Venu knew that her offer was both strange and absurd, he just smiled acquiescence, being a kind hearted man. Inexplicably, people started flocking to his cart and started buying up his vegetables. They seemed to be fascinated by the old woman, ogling at her and even trying to flirt. After he had mopped up the day's sale, he tried to thank the old lady but she was nowhere to be found. " Did you see the old lady who was standing with me till now?" He asked some of his c...
