Beach Adventure!!

                                                                   Beach Adventure

             A short story to keep your intellect occupied during the Covid-19 conundrum 

I entered the world of paradise and then I saw the deep blue majestic ocean which is home to all life. On the shores of the ocean, I saw the golden sand sparkling like thousands of tiny jewels as the sunlight shone on it. When the waves crashed on the sand they left back a hundred, tiny, colorful seashells and some white, thick, fluffy foam for us to take home as a sweet memory.  

The waves sometimes took it very harsh on the hard rocks with a very loud crashing sound. Rarely some fishes washed up onto the beach of the sea where the seagulls with a screeching noise barged on their prey. But after the seagulls were gone the wind took over by blowing lightly to relax our minds.

Even though we get relaxed the awful smell of the disgusting decaying seaweeds still annoyed us. But we could feel and smell the humid sea air that lingered around. We could also feel the gritty sand pocking our soft gentle skin. At last, we got into the salty, cool sea to get our feet drenched in water.



After we were done with playing we walked up to the deckchairs and lay down to relax our tired bones and ligaments. So after a day’s work, we stayed calm and peaceful at last.

Then a gush of wind hit our face sending our hair in all directions. It also carried the salt from the mighty, majestic, and deep blue sea along with it. The air was so humid that we felt like entering a sauna.

The pleasant mood was about to get spoilt when the fast beach ball was making its way through the beach heading towards me. Luckily a young player caught it and threw it back to the kids. I was indebted to her. As I turned my head towards the other side, I saw some people making the finest sandcastles you have ever seen and other people were walking up to the ice cream shop to have a quick bite of different flavors.

It was too noisy in this part of the beach so I decided to go to the other part where it would be much quieter. When I walked up to the other side I saw that a colossal bull shark was washed on to the beach. Not wasting any more time I ran up to the lifeguard and informed him about it. Then an immediate call was made and every citizen was taken to safety.

All lifeguards were shocked to see the terrifying shark lying unconscious on the bank of the beach. They called the researchers and the transport team immediately. Soon later they arrived. The transport team shifted the gigantic shark to their inner sea activity center (ISAC) as fast as they could. The research team started to investigate the ferocious but unconscious shark.

I crossed my fingers and hoped that the underwater bull did not cause much trouble to us. Luckily nothing terrible happened to the shark or the scientists and the bull was set free into the ocean. At last we returned to the beach. Then I thought that everything was back to normal and I could still enjoy my time at the beach, but then I realized that I spoke too soon.

Suddenly the skies darkened, the calm waves went crazy, there were deafening thunders and blinding lightning. The crowded beach was deserted in a fraction of second.

Then I sensed that a fierce storm was about to hit my city. Just at that very fraction of second, I saw a gigantic wave which was carrying all sorts of disgusting things like Dead Seaweeds, the smelly white foam on the water and not to forget, the slippery, scaly fishes.  The wave was making its way towards me like a hungry tiger leaping on its prey. I was sure that this very moment is the end of my luxurious life. But it wasn’t…

I woke up with a start and my face covered with my salty sweat in the ISAC. I was dreaming all about the terrifying storm and the shark being let into the mighty ocean. I was relieved that it was only a scary nightmare, and it was never going to happen in real-world and to my surprise the shark was alright and it was put in a huge tank and kept for observation for a few hours. 

The authorities then thanked me for informing them about the miscellaneous carnivore which was let loose in the marine ocean and if I had not informed them about it then our lives would have been in danger. They were indebted to me for this action of mine and they then left me in my mansion and they were very grateful to me. After a while they took leave of me and left to their respective centers and they were back to their regular routine, yet I couldn’t believe that all this happened in one day, but the adventure was over. Or, had I spoken too soon once again?

Computers: workers or bosses?

  How many hours do you spend on the computer every day? An average American adult spends 8 ½ hours of the day staring into the screens, and to be precise, 142.5 minutes daily in front of the computer. Why do people tend to spoil their health by hooking on to gadgets; computer, which will completely sabotage their lives just to earn some money? Don’t they realize that health is more valuable than the Blue  Diamond or the computer itself? Firstly, working people often give loads of excuses for them to stick on to their electronic devices. Electronic devices are helpful, but as Mark Twain quoted ‘too much is too bad’. Even though computers are used for educational fields, business purposes, and in banking sectors, it should be limited. Anything to some extent is good.   Secondly, people use computer technology in hospitals for doing surgeries and to treat people. It also connects us to people throughout the world. Many people can use Google maps to direct them from p...

                                                PHOTOS AND   PHOTOGRAPHY DESCRIPTION    ICE CRYSTALS I was walking along the icy snow glazed path on the hills of Bhutan when suddenly, a natural, phenomenal beauty caught my eye. I was bewitched by the breathtaking view of the ice crystals that had formed in the small rocky hollow in the walls of the frosty mountain. A moment later, I just knew that I had to share this incredible scene with my kith and kins, so I decided to take a snap of this beauty which is rarely noticed by people. ‘Nature has its own way of sculpting things to show its eternal beauty’, just like these tender, delicate crystals. WATERFALL I was walking along the foothills of the mountain where the infamous tigers' nest is located when this impeccable sight caught my view. I was ama...

Do we need 'Fashion'?

Image
                Fashion, a popular or the latest style of clothing, hair, decoration, or behavior which is adapted by people. Why do we dress up? Why do we tend to buy clothes which are worn by models?   It is fashionable and when somebody is a part of a society they dress accordingly with a touch of fashion. They keep their dignity while wearing a modern trendy dress and they still do not cross their comfort zone. These outfits also help to build up our confidence while facing a large audience and it also enhances our value in the profession and the way we dress reflects on our behavior and dignity. We also grab many people’s attention and slowly we start to become popular.              Does this help only the people who wear it? No. The world works with demand and supply policy. The demand for trendy clothes produces money for clothing designers and the m...
