I was carrying lot of mission in my thoughts. "For sure I wanted to change the world", is the thought I was carrying on my smile when I walked to the woods behind my farm house. There is a lake nearby the woods, possessing tranquillity as its attitude. I haven't been there before, but this time something was drawing me towards it. Unknowingly I started walking towards the lake. My dad always used to tell me," It is a natural resting place, whenever you sit on the banks of it, you will feel, that is the best place one can feel of". These words were pouring in my mind and I was walking towards the lake unknowingly.
I reached the lake sat down with one foot down in water wet till little above ankles. The water was little chilled, gave me a fresh feel of breeze. Then started little drizzling and it was really soothe at touch. It was very scenic and as I looked at the sky, I saw a cloud slowly diluting and moving. From them a bunch of sun rays were trying to bisect. Some could some could not. At the juncture I could see multiple colours for a short while. What a sight it was. As the cloud became thinner, the light started creeping in. mixing with the drizzle and cloud vapour, light was giving out seven colours. It was not consistent, varying with the position of cloud and shining at different colours at short intervals.
It was a colour delight and I fell in love. I liked the rainbow for its willingness to form. The colour delight was getting intense, seven colours were dancing. Very soon it took the bow shape and the cloud got thinner. It was as if coloured rays coming out of a silver lining. Golden sun rays added to the beauty, that makes say what a sight! Eyes raised in pomp and vision made merry out of this. In this feast it taught me the secret of success, to hold to your belief that you can be a rainbow irrespective of whatever comes in the middle.
I got up and challenged myself with a year time, to get the rainbow out of me.
"Here you are…” said dad, stopping the car. I woke up and was enthralled at sweet my memories. So strong, I am dreaming about them. Dad said, "Go, watch your Rainbow, I will be waiting at the resort nearby."
I got down the car and was walking towards the lake. I sat down at the same place waiting for my colour delight. I was spot on, nature showed me its wonder and yea this time colour delight was very pleasant. What a sight and what a sigh of inspiration. I just said myself, "Rainbow changed my life... What a transformations I have got in myself..."
I recorded this moment for dreaming during my next visit, and felt like moving. I got up and bowing to the Rainbow said, "Thank you Rainbow; for you a Happy bow"

Life Is A Prayer
It was half an hour past midnight. I just returned from town after purchasing fertilizers for my farm. The wind was blowing hard and rain is expected anytime. I had to make mud passages in my field, so that it will not stock rain water. I was contemplating to go or not, rather to trust in god that it will not rain today. I was lacking motivation and hence went to my neighbor; eventually our farms are nearby and asked him, if he can join me to make the passages now. He told me “Nothing will happen, you don’t worry. Rain will not come, go and sleep.” I was temporarily satisfied and reached my house. Something was pricking inside.
Someone inside was telling me you are not doing what you should do. I felt I should respect my inner voice. I gave it an ear. It was telling me finish of the work don’t post pone. Now listening to something like this I decided let’s follow the heart. I told myself, “Whatever happens let me do it, not only for rain, I trust god for this effort of mine too.” I started with a lantern in my hand and was walking towards the farm.
While I was reaching I saw bunch of people sleeping on the side ways, who normally work at farms. I was realizing the value of the job I am doing, I am making food for others. I was feeling more responsible in the act of mine, and as soon as I reached the farm, I started the work. I was done in an hour for my farm, and I wanted to do the passages for my neighbor’s farm also which is thrice that of mine. Once I was done, I walked to amidst of my farm and looked at sky and prayed god, “Oh! Please make sure that it doesn’t rain today, there are many farmers sleeping who did not make passages, for their mistake don’t cost it to hunger of many people. Please.”
I got back home and had a satisfactory sleep. As I got up the next day morning, I realized that there was rain in the early hours, and some of the farms were in a very bad shape. My neighbor came running to me and thanked me for the favor I have done to him. As the crop came to ripe, my farm gave a great yield and I could stock plenty and so was my neighbor.
I walked to my farm again to look at the people whom I saw the night when I was making passages. As I reached to their place, I was hearing people crying for food. I felt like helping them. The people were plenty my stock wasn’t enough. I prayed god “God, please help us to come out of this.” Next day morning my neighbor walked up to me and hand over his total stock to me and said it is yours, you own it and he left. A little surprised I saw god in his actions and helped the people for food. We could manage the situation and with grace of lord we came out of the hunger panic.
As time passed it was ripping time again and almost reaching 9 o’clock in the night my neighbor knocked me and said, can you help me out with the passages, it might rain today. I said fine, as we went to the farm. He told me, I have already completed mine and yours. Tonight let’s do it for all the people who could not do it. I was extremely happy with this and decided to do my part as a being.
We were there for some good 5 hours and were back at home, got up in the morning to realize there was no rain and things are fine. I was extremely happy and so was my neighbor for the people around us. I realized if human being be sincere, God will never dispose human asks. It is the choice you make that let god decide your consequence. If god would have listened to me the first time, my neighbor wouldn’t have realized his duty. Once we give our best the creator will see the rest.
With huge gratitude to God, I told myself about this act,
“Choices are Offerings”
“Consequences are Blessings”
“Life Is A Prayer”
