classic carrot cake.

It has been a fantastic year for some, a roller-coaster for some. I heard this story from my spouse and I genuinely think it is perfect for this last blog of 2024.

The story goes like this, A young lad falls in love with the village chief's daughter. The village chief knows the boy well but for the sake of formality and to be very sure that he is choosing the right boy for his girl, he tells the boy that he will surely give his daughter's hand in marriage to him but he has to pass a small test as a formality. He calls the boy next morning at his cow shed.

The boy was very confident about himself and had come dressed well as he knew this is just a formality and he was hundred percent marrying the girl. The chief met the boy at the gate and told the boy his task. He will be releasing 3 bulls,the boy has to catch the tail of any one of it,if he is able to do that,he is free to marry his daughter. The boy being confident agrees without second thoughts.

The gate opens and the first Bull comes out,He is running at top speed, has red fire filled eyes, is strong, tough and looks as if he is ready to trample the boy. The boy is scared to his wits,he thinks in his mind if I am alive,I will have the chance to marry,I will let this bull go,will catch the tail of the next one.

The first one goes and the second bull comes out,this one is more ferocious, more strong again the same story repeats The boy let's this bull go,promising himself that he is not going to let his last chance go. When the last Bull came out,the boy was laughing his heart out,because the last bull was old,frail, weak and was not even able to walk properly, forget about running. The boy got impatient ,he couldn't wait for the bull to come towards him and ran to catch the tail of this bull. Alas, the last bull Had" No Tail"

Moral of the story "Opportunity is disguised as Problem." Last year is already gone and so with it the time to rectify the past and gone mistakes. The new year 2025 is upon us with brand new 365 Opportunities. Look at the Future with Hope.
