In desperate moments

 A Lesson in Perseverance: Overcoming Desperation and Finding a Solution

I still vividly remember the day when I realized that the matured amount from my deposit had not been credited to my savings account. I had been eagerly waiting for the maturity date, and when the amount didn't appear in my account, I felt a wave of panic wash over me. My mind was racing with thoughts of lost money, and I couldn't shake off the feeling of desperation that had settled in.


The Initial Desperation

I frantically verified my deposit details, re-checking the account number, maturity date, and balance. But every time, the result was the same - a zero balance with a notification stating that no closure instructions had been given. I felt like I was staring into an abyss, with no clear solution in sight. My anxiety levels were soaring, and I couldn't concentrate on anything else. I began to wonder if I had made a mistake, if I had somehow missed giving the necessary instructions.


The Emotional Rollercoaster

As the hours ticked by, my anxiety levels continued to rise. I felt like I was losing control, and the uncertainty was suffocating me. I began to question my own memory, wondering if I had somehow forgotten to give the necessary instructions. The self-doubt was crippling, and I felt like I was trapped in a never-ending nightmare. I couldn't eat, I couldn't sleep, and I couldn't concentrate on anything else. All I could think about was the lost money and the uncertainty that surrounded it.


The Turning Point

But then, something inside me clicked. I realized that I couldn't let desperation consume me. I took a deep breath, calmed my racing thoughts, and decided to approach the problem with a clear mind. I sat down, gathered my thoughts, and began to think logically about the situation. I asked myself questions like "What could have gone wrong?" "What are the possible solutions?" and "What can I do to resolve this issue?"


The Solution

As I re-examined the deposit details, I noticed a small clause that mentioned the need for explicit closure instructions. It was a tiny detail, but it was the key to unlocking the solution. With newfound confidence, I decided to close the account and provide clear instructions for the matured amount to be credited to my savings account. I carefully filled out the necessary forms, double-checked the details, and submitted the request.


The Relief

The moment I submitted the request, I felt a weight lift off my shoulders. And then, within seconds, the matured amount was credited to my savings account. The relief was palpable, and I felt a sense of pride and accomplishment at having overcome the challenge. I realized that the experience had taught me a valuable lesson - that in moments of desperation, it's essential to take a step back, calm down, and think clearly.


The Lesson Learned

Looking back, I realize that the experience taught me a valuable lesson. In moments of desperation, it's essential to take a step back, calm down, and think clearly. By applying my mind and persevering, I was able to find a solution to the problem. It was a powerful reminder that, no matter how daunting the challenge may seem, there's always a way forward. The experience also taught me the importance of patience, persistence, and attention to detail. It reminded me that even in the darkest of moments, there's always hope, and that with determination and perseverance, anything is possible.

M T Vasudevan Nair

My entry into the world of Malayalam literature was through the masterful writings of M. T. Vasudevan Nair, whose passing today feels like a deeply personal loss. It was his novel Manju (Mist) that first drew me into this literary universe. The story, much like its title, was enveloped in an atmosphere of melancholy and mystery. It unraveled slowly, like mist clearing in the morning light, revealing truths that were profound yet heartbreakingly simple. The characters, their struggles, and their silences lingered in my mind long after I turned the last page. It was not just a novel; it was an experience. I returned to it over and over, each time discovering something new, as though the book was speaking directly to the depths of my soul. To this day, I cannot count how many times I have read Manju—it became, and remains, a companion to my thoughts. After Manju opened the door, M. T.’s other works beckoned me forward. I was soon engrossed in Nalukettu, a story that painted a vivid portra...

Elephant Migration

** The Escalating Conflict Between Humans and Elephants: An Analysis of the Impact of Climate Change** The increasing incidences of elephants encroaching into human settlements in search of water and food present a vivid manifestation of the broader environmental crisis fuelled by climate change. This essay explores the complexities of this escalating conflict, which not only threatens the survival of the majestic Asian and African elephant species but also poses significant risks to human communities. The fundamental issue at the heart of this conflict is habitat loss, driven largely by climatic fluctuations and exacerbated by human activities such as deforestation and the expansion of agricultural and urban areas. As natural forests dwindle and water sources dry up, elephants, which are known for their large home ranges and dependency on vast quantities of water, are forced to venture into human-dominated areas. This migration is driven by a desperate search for the necessities of su...
