The Lost......

I was sitting in my cabin and probably listening to JLO…….. My cell rang…..My Boss was in a mood to talk to me…….He said “ since you are working hard, I am thinking to assign you for a area mapping which was once done before 7 years”……. I was thrilled to know the confidence the Boss had in me……. I felt proud until my Boss declared the name of the area and hung dawn……. I then cursed my Boss since he had assigned me for the worst area of my career in Chambal…….But there is a famous saying “ If you can’t kill a snake then its always wise to spend some money in purchasing milk “……. I had to start my tour…….Crap…..I again had to a listen to “ Saat samunder paar “ as it was a 7 hours drive……Fortunately I reached the place where my Boss had instructed me to reach……I checked in the resort where the Manager was uttering impossible words to understand although he was speaking in hindi……When I enquired he answered me that he had lost all his teeth after eating a jungli fruit in childhood……The area was just inside a dense forest and I was quite excited to as I foresaw fine holidays ahead……Next morning I woke up at 6 AM although I never use to do that and ordered my breakfast…….Huh….I got my order served at 12 AM…… I ate and slept as it was too risky to go out in a typical village of Chambal Vally……In the afternoon I decided to play cricket with local guys and joined one team…….I cracked some good strokes but got abused by some local children as I won the game against them…….Than it was night……I heard many wild animals roaring and I pretended to sleep…… It was a nice experience till a villager offered me some jungli fruits……Crap....Then and there I decided to rush back as I was too scared to be toothless in future……..Life has been so wonderful to me till date and I would love to die one fine day saying “ Life had been so wonderful “ …..

Hard work never killed anybody, but why take a chance?
