Mr. Santa Always used to say it could be worse then this on every bad accident.
His neighbor mr Banta finished his business tour 2 days early than his schedule and he saw his wife was in bed with some one else. Mr Banta got angry and killed his wife and the man.
After that Mr Banta got arrested and Mr Santa came to meet him. As always Mr Santa said it could be worst than this.
Mr banta asked "what could worst than this?"
Mr Santa Answerd " Its good you did not close your tour 3 early else I must have died in place of that guy".
I read this joke in a joke book 2 month back but I did not took it as joke.I belived things could be worst than what happend.
Today I wake up with a fresh mood and promised my self I would be positive all day and I would not shout on any one not even on myself. Yes I shout on myself and I loose my temper easily. I promised my self this after a lot of self testing in last 2 month but I think god also heard my promise and decided to examine me so he started taking exam since morning.
When I reached to office an order was waiting for me in a packet of request. It was some thing that was not related to my work directly but indirectly it was. I had no choice other than following that order. After that order I got bit off but I had to keep myself with my promise to myself so started thinking positive and soon got some thing that was good with that order.
In office it was only bad thing but at 4pm in evening it started heavy rain and then I remembered I forgot to close both the window of my room. My room is not a big room, its just 8*8 room with a 4*8 lobby. My room is on terrace means open to air on both the window. Near one window I have my bead and near other window I have a table on which I keep my electronic goods, books and notebooks. I was sure that I would have at least one bedding out of three hand mad cotton mattresses, I was sure that I would have no problem on my table as its little away from the window. When I reached to my room I found my all surety was gone. I lost my all dry beddings including pillow. Table was filled with water and notebooks were just taking bath in that water.
It was not enough; floor of my room was like a mini swimming pool in which at least cockroaches could swim. I tried to turn on the light and voila no power. I went back down stairs to check if electricity not working only for my room than I got its not working only for the building where I live. I said ok and went back to my room cleared the bedding and placed them in a shade to dry on terrace.
As I already decided for not to get angry and not to shout on any one I kept my self cool and I opted for thinking positive and keeping my self cool. I said to my self this was the bad that’s already gone but worst is still not there. So think positive.
It’s ok to say worst is still not there but you should have a proper reason to say this to yourself than I started thinking and found it. I washed my clothed 2 days back and I placed them in shed to get dry. It was already dried and I was about to collect those cloths from out side shed and was about to put them on the bed in morning so I can iron them after coming back from office. I did not do this and saved my cloths at least.
I removed my all the books from my table in morning only by consuming the time of cloth collection so I got only my notebooks wet not my presious books.
I had a serious issue with my bed that could have solve easily, I could have get new mattress from downstairs from the person who take care building but that guy went out of town for a week just today few hours back. Here my do not die sprit helped me and I searched for the alternate person, I found him and got extra bedding.
It was not the enough. After this I went out side to get milk and vegetables. I came back to 9PM oto my room building and I saw the main entrance of the building was locked. Regularly it gets locked at 11pm by the person who was out of the town. It’s a commercial building and only its maintenance person family and I leave in this building, I had key of the main door but its lock was lost 2 days back , Yes I said lock was lost not the key. After this all, good thing was I had the number of the building owner. I called him and here also bad time did not forgive me, I was out of credit in my prepaid cell phone just after one minute of my call. Now good thing was I had coin and public booth was just opposite to me. I called him back and he told me the alternate person is there only. He is in an auto rickshaw opposite to gate of the building. When I reached to him I got smell of alcohol and I understood the reason of closing the door early today.
I asked him when I can expect the electricity to come back and he said it’s a fault and electricity department people are looking in the matter. Good thing with this answer was I got that its not sure when electricity will come so I opted to get a candle before going back under lock.
I came to my room cleaned every thing including my floor and table. After that cleaned utensils and thought I should not cook food now after all this but good thing was I cooked food because I thought for not to punish my self any more. Good thing was I cooked my food and after eating I was about to write this all in a paper notebook because my notebook pc was running out of battery and electricity was still not there but good thing was electricity came that time. It was 11.30 till that time time.
With this day behind every bad thing I had a good thing and though it could have been worse than this. I was able to manage good things just because of keeping my self cool.
Mu suggestion to all be positive. Its not only blood group but attitude also.
