The Lottery

Everyday I purchase few lottery tickets with the eagerness to win prizes. In the end, when the results come in the evening, I become forlorn. None of the tickets win a single prize. I end up the ritual of the day by tearing the tickets and throwing them into the dustbin.


Don’t Mess with a Jew

We all know Hitler’s persecution and antagonism towards the Jews which ultimately led to his downfall.

Don’t Mess with a Jew as an idiom means refraining from doing something that will lead to your downfall.

In my life I don’t want to mess with a Jew.

Peter’s Denial

When the rooster crowed three times, Peter denied Jesus Christ as he was afraid.

Peter’s denial as an Idiom means: not standing up for justice and truth due to fear.

In my life time there is not a single instance of Peter’s Denial.

Devil’s Antidote

Devil’s antidote as an Idiom means getting a huge windfall gain.

Yes, I would like to have the Devil’s antidote.

 My First Date 

Sheba was a college beauty. One day, she started smiling at me. I also smiled back in return. I did not have the courage to speak to her. I did not have the courage to speak to her.  But later on, I did.  Then we fixed a date to go to watch a movie. We had to travel by train. We stood at the entrance and she held my hands. Her skin was so soft as cheese. My whole body as shivering with excitement. I loved the texture and feel of her hands. Later on, we went into the movie theatre. It was dark inside and that is when I did the first kiss.  Butterflies melted in my mouth when kissed her. I put my fingers through her frock and cuddled her breasts. Yes, I was on cloud nine when I did all these things.
