(187)The Bear and the Fox

-

A Bear used to boast of his excessive love for Man, saying that he never worried or mauled him when dead. The Fox observed, with a smile, "I should have thought more of your profession if you never ate him alive."

Moral for kids- Better save a man from dying than save him when dead.

"A Breath Denied: A study on the Sanctity of Life" By Binoy Thomas (MSc. Medical Biochemistry) The Context of This Writing It was an evening a few years ago. I was walking along the pavement in Kottayam town after work when I ran into an old friend. During our conversation, I sensed he was deeply troubled. The issue was this: his wife was working as a school teacher on a contract basis. They already had one child. Fearing she might lose her job, they weren't planning for a second child anytime soon. However, due to what he called a "mistake," they were moving to terminate a two-month-old pregnancy. I spoke to him firmly for nearly half an hour against it, but there was no significant response. Perhaps because his wife was more educated than him, he kept repeating her firm stance with a sense of "fearful respect." As my hopes faded, I prayed a couple of times that God would give them the right sense, and then I forgot about it. I didn't call him aga...

(46) A friendship problem!

-
 Once, Damu, the woodcutter from the land of Silbaripuram, had to go deep into the forest to look for good quality wood. There were many animals living there. An eagle and a wildcat were friends with a wolf living deep inside the forest. One day, the wolf was attacked by a tiger. However, since the wolf ran a long distance trying to escape, its two friends did not come to know about it. When Damu walked past the wolf, he heard its cries. Damu felt pity and gave the wolf food and water. Out of gratitude, the wolf followed Damu. After a few days, the wolf regained its former health. However, at the same time, the eagle and the wildcat were searching for the wolf throughout the forest. In the meantime, some bird came and informed the eagle that the wolf had started living in the village. Subsequently, the eagle and the wildcat came behind Damu's house at night. They were both very hungry at that time. The wildcat then said, "You snatch the chicks. I will eat the hen." Hearin...

(102) Should You Wear Footwear While Driving?

-
You might have read in the news about a prominent leader and educationist from Kottayam district who recently passed away following a car accident. What caught my attention was the specific cause of that tragic accident. While starting and moving the car forward, his shoe got stuck between the brake and the accelerator. This caused the accelerator pedal to get pressed down suddenly, making the vehicle surge forward and crash into a pillar. To avoid such incidents, it is often suggested not to wear footwear while driving four-wheelers. The Potential Risks: Design Hazards: Many types of footwear have extra width, long laces, or flaps. These can easily get snagged on the three pedals (clutch, brake, and accelerator). Tactile Feedback: Sensory nerves end at the tips of our toes. Driving barefoot allows for better precision, speed, and sensitivity in controlling the pedals compared to wearing heavy footwear.  Reaction Time: Thick-soled shoes can slightly delay the time it takes to switc...
