One day he went to his Hermitage to meet the sage in a village. The man told his problem to the sage that he has no shortage of anything but still he is always worried.
The sage heard his problem and said - come tomorrow, I will tell you how to stay happy and worry free.
The man reached the Hermitage of the sage at the same time the next day. He saw that the sage was looking for something outside his Hermitage.
The person said - Guruvar (sage) what are you looking for? May I help you! The sage said - I am looking for my ring, which is lost.
Hearing this, that person also started searching for his ring with the sage. Even after searching for a long time, the ring was not found, then the person asked the sage - where did your ring fall?
The sage said - My ring fell in the hut of the Hermitage, but it is very dark there, so I am looking for the ring outside the Hermitage.
The person asked with surprise - when your ring fell in the hut, why are you looking out here ???
The sage said - this is the solution to your problem..
Happiness is inside you, but you are looking for it in money and foreign goods. The entire sea is inside you, but still you are looking for water outside with a spoon. Money or property is important in life, but happiness cannot be bought only with money.

3. The Christmas Gift
Once upon a time there lived a family in Melbourne. The father had three lovely children and the mother had passed away while giving birth to her youngest child Zylith. The last words of the mother were “When we have each other, we have everything.”
The next day they set up a funeral for the mother and the father muttered slowly “Gone but never forgotten.” With the passing of time Zylith grew to be a very gracious girl.
Everyone around her loved her for her kind heart and she was also very clever. The two older sisters were egotistical and greedy.
They always celebrated Christmas and it was Christmas Eve at last. Everyone was so excited and they all started to prepare for it.
“Hey Verose don’t hang those stupid bubbles, the tree already looks ugly as you” said Emily the oldest sister. She bursted out laughing and Verose yelled “Shut up! And you Zylith what the hell are you watching? You better not forget that mom died because of you and she is not here to celebrate Christmas with us, it’s all because of you! From the moment you were born misfortune have been following you.”
Zylith tried not to shed her tears and ran to her room. Smirked the two of them and she cried while hugging her mother’s picture. After awhile the father came home and told his daughters to hand him the cards and that he’ll post them to Santa on his way to work.
As their father was a merchant, he was mostly out. In the morning there were two presents beautifully wrapped. The two older sisters got what they wished for, a fine silk dress and a jewelry. The two of them asked “Where is your present Zylith?” Giggled the both of them.
It’s right here said Zylith.
The father said “What do you mean?” You guys are my present and what I need the most. When we have each other, we have everything and the greatest gift of all is family and my greatest pleasure is spending time with you all and I’m happy for that said Zylith. We’re sorry for everything.
You are the good fortune in our family and please forgive us for how we treated you said Verose and Emily. I forgive you two, after all we are a family and family is a gift that lasts forever said Zylith. They all cried out of happiness and lived happily ever after.

6. Dreams Come True
Some people say that dreams don’t come true but I bet it does. The last incident that took place in my school on August 21, 2020 confirmed that dreams Do Come True. The previous night, as I was sleeping, I dreamed about a house burning.
Everyone was shocked and we all started to look around for where the smoke was coming from. People were screaming and running helter-skelter trying to quench the fire. Some people called the fire department, but they arrive late.
The next day, I went to school. I was in the class and a teacher was teaching. Suddenly, the atmosphere changed and it became stuffy we started perceiving smoke.
So, my teacher then open the window. Behold! A house behind the school was on fire and the fire was almost coming near the school building.
My teacher then shouted “There is fire, everybody run!” I was so scared that I left my school bag and my lunch box with my sandals in the school. As we were in the other compound, many parents came to pick up their children.
We waited for our parents to come. Then I saw my mother coming towards the entrance of the compound crying. Immediately she saw us, she ran to hug us and she quickly took us home. She didn’t even remember to ask for our school bags and shoes. We ran home.
The teachers in the school were calling the fire department, but it took some time for them to come when they arrive. When they finally arrived, they figured out that no one was at home when the fire started and it must been an electric iron plugged to a socket that caused the fire outbreak.
I was so afraid that I forgot all my things at school. My legs were shaking but I ran as fast as I could. I couldn’t run very well because my sandals were still at school. when I went home I told my Dad everything that happened, he was so shocked about it but he was happy to see us.
Few days later, my Dad brought my things back from school and the house was that was on fire was rebuilt. Everything was back to normal. It was the worst day of my life but the Dream came true.
