OldMan and the Moon

October -11-2007

Oldman did not sleep well yesterday night. So he was very tired the whole day. He looked at his wish list for that day. He was having a strange wish list. He did not know when the items in the list will change. He read the first two things from the list

Hummer – 2 nos
Air ticket to Greece – 4 to 5

He checked his wallet and bank accounts and sighed. Then he kept his head ahead and smiled. He remembered a Gospel “ Nothing is impossible for God”.

Then he went to gym. He thought he need to keep fit to take delivery of a sports utility vehicle. He wore a tight T-shirt and entered the gym. There were many young guys. They looked at his fit looking body. Old man did not know whether they drooled or not. But he told them:

“Sons, if you want to keep young, be young at heart. For that you need the company of young people. Not just young but young and active people, who can dance sing, jump, climb artificial wall, play badminton, swim, moon gaze….”

“What? Moon gaze? You mean star gaze?” asked one of them

“Yes son, its moon gazing… moon gazing is very good for keeping young. Moon is astrologically connected to our mind and those who are connected to moon are dreamers.. Dreamers can at least dream that they are young even when they are getting older…gotcha?”

“But we already are young…” another one

“Then you grow old and get the company of young ones….pssssst, son, don’t tell this to anybody”

“Thanks” they all replied.

Oldman finished his workout and he felt really good. He went out and walked a little….some thoughts flashed in his mind and he became happy.

He thanked God and then he thanked his friends and he said to himself “This is not the time to think about death……Good Night”

The night became good!!! There came lots of stars in the sky...and the moon too!!!
