Yesterday, I was waiting at the Dentist clinic I happened to lay my hands on a local Tamil magazine. I browsed through to find my small stories which I am always fond of. I found a short story on a hare and a dog
There was a small hare that lived among the bushes in a forest. One day the hare decided to go to the town that was near the forest. The hare made it start in the morning from the forest and came out to the town road. It was admiring the people, cycle, houses and so on. The hare was walking around the town silently hiding in the trees which it found on the way to avoid attraction from people. All of a sudden a dog came from nowhere. When this dog saw the hare it started chasing it. Hare realized that his life is now in danger when it saw the ferocious wowing dog. So the hare started running gaining its full strength in its legs. The dog chased the hare. Every time the hare missed the dog just in seconds and reached the forest and it ran into the forest. The moment the dog reached the brim of the forest it was tired. Also the dog was not ready to enter into a new arena to catch the hare. So it returned back to the town.
The above story is just a simple children tale. But it conveyed a meaning to me. The hare was in a life or death situation while for the dog it was just another food. If not hare it would have been a cat for the dog. That made the difference in their destiny. Though we all know the moral of this story we all choose to forget it unless told again. This reiterated the known fact that a person should run with the correct speed, time and determination to win in life.
After I came home I finished some of the work which I procrastinated from the past. It also made me to re-visit my blog.
When I visited my blog back....Gosh.... almost 3yrs since I wrote nothing. This made me think if I have lost my creativity/language/thinking..... Answer that my mind said was that I lacked determination to pen down my thoughts. So I penned this story to motivate myself in the future.
