Fear of Unknown Creatures...

Woods are lonely dark and deep...
I have many promises to keep...
Miles to go before i sleep....Miles to go before i sleep......

Sleep ....Its just a necessity but for me it has always been a luxury. Technically its the best thing i do in the whole day!!!
BUT...the story changed when i was given my independent room in class V th and i started feeling Scared while going to sleep.

My dolls , My Teddy Bears started appearing different at night. I would always open my eyes slowly to see if anyone is there....Any GROTESQUE...HORRIBLE...SCARY Creature with million eyes, coal black teeth and skin of bark of tree.
I used to get very uncomfortable and dint know how to get over this FEAR of mine. Then, one day i saw a deadly episode of Zee Horror Show which was like icing on the (fear)cake...But its price was paid by my parents and sibling. They were supposed to be with me until I sleep everyday + they had to accompany me till the door of the washroom and respond to me whenever i asked-"Mumma Are You There?"

 Then one day my English teacher was teaching a poem named "DRACULA" and its wordings were something like this-

I have a dragon living on my window,
                      I have witch living in my closet,
I have a Dracula living behind my curtains,
                      I have a mummy lying down under my bed;
So, i all i have Four servants of my own!!!
                   Dragon is supposed to clean my room and make it dirt free
and, witch helps him with her special Broom....
                  Dracula is supposed to clean my closet and take out every possible bubbling!
When, i come tired from school, every work has to be finished;
            otherwise, i will not give them food and beat them with their brooms.
 oh, i forgot to state that my lazy 'mummy' is supposed to do my body massage...
           ha ha..its so much fun to live with these useless creatures!!!


and then, i said to myself ... Enough is Enough!...i will make any creature which comes near me to do all my homework clean the room etc. and if they don't do...I will beat them with my stick!!!


            Later , as i grew up i realized , at most what a ghost can do.....it can kill me...OK, one day i have to die anyways, but i wont be scared anymore and live my life to the fullest, without getting Scared!!!


and Trust me...LiFe is much more Easier and it belongs to me....

Thought for the Day



"The only thing we have to fear is fear it'self - nameless, unreasoning, unjustified, terror which paralyzes needed efforts to convert retreat into advance." ---- FDR - First Inaugural Address, March 4, 1933
