FISH’S DAY OUT

                            Anand was the lover of fish. He had a passion to grow fish in his house. Therefore he owned number of fish tanks and innumerable fishes in it. He himself constructed beautiful fish tanks according to his taste and interest. He loved them very deeply. Fishes too were so close to him. He took care of them with so much of affection.

                         The arrangement for water, food and air was perfectly fine. Cleanliness was mind blowing. He loved to chat with them and they too responded very happily. He called them by name. His son too was attracted by them. He also spent time with them. They became his friends.

                        One of the fish Luji, was so cute and smart. He wanted to roam around not only in the fish tank but also outside the tank. He used to wait for the chance. Whenever Anand and other co-workers cleansed  all the fish tanks, Luji  used to roam around. For the first time Luji visited the garden. He became so excited and wanted to remain there itself. But Anand who knew each and every fish, found Luji and put him back in the tank. Once  Luji was found climbing on the staircase. Next time Luji visited the dining room. He climbed on the table and danced. Hid  himself under the chairs. Luji noticed Anand’s son opened the refrigerator and took the water bottle outside. Luji keenly observed the fridge. He thought water, air and food items are available here. Why should I live in the fish tank? Meanwhile Anand caught Luji and put him in the fish tank with the warning.

                     But Luji never worried about it and waited for the next chance. He shared his wonderful experience with the other fishes. He insisted them to join him next time. But they refused very prudently. One fine day Luji got the chance to come out of the tank. He rushed up to the dining room and waited there for someone to open the fridge. Anand’s son came and opened the refrigerator to have some fruits. Luji leaped into it very happily. Fridge was closed and Luji had no knowledge about it. He was busy looking at the things available in the fridge. Quiet satisfied. Looking at the water bottles he thought no worry for water. Seeing some smoke like appearance inside the fridge Luji thought no worry for breathing.

                Now Anand looked for Luji. He went to the garden, he was not there. He went into the kitchen and he wasn’t found. He looked at the dining room. No, he was not there. His son looked under the chairs but couldn’t find him. They really worried about him. Anand was so disappointed for giving so much freedom to Luji. He couldn’t concentrate in any other work. His only thought was about Luji, Luji and Luji.

              On the next day when Anand’s  son looked into the fridge hunting for chocolates he suddenly noticed Luji  was lying there without any movement. He screamed dad, dad, look at Luji.

             Our life on this earth is designed with the purpose. On the way to know the things sometimes we are trapped unnecessarily.  Where ever we are, let us try to prove our best.
