Stress Free Life – A Dream

Aeshani Pathak, Class X B

Is being stress-free a real state of being? A distinct possibility, or is it beyond the grasp of us mortals who have their hands, mind and heart filled with so many to-dos? So many expectations, so many pressures and insecurities coming out of our family, career, relationships, financial and ego needs to stay ahead?

Stress is nothing but the inability to relax the nervous tension that inhibits the brain. Long-term stress can affect the mental as well as the physical health. To cope with it, we need regular exercise and some time to relax and refresh our brain. But, doing so is next to impossible in our busy schedule.

Living a stress-free life is an elusive dream, at least in today’s world where staying ahead in the competition is all you need to survive. So, better learn to deal with it.

A Mysterious Corner of my House

Nirmesh Rajput, Class IX A

It had been a long time since I had been living in the quarters and paying rent each month. Now it was time to buy a new house. My friend found a perfect house for me and I decided to shift immediately. I could not meet the person selling the house. My friend fixed the deal for me.

I soon shifted to my new house. It was perfect. The house was big for me as I lived alone. One day, I thought of exploring the basement which I had not checked out earlier. It had not been opened since I had bought the house.

I looked around in search of something interesting. The corner to the left was very dark, which was strange at that point of time since it was sunny outside. I thought of taking a closer look. As I moved closer to that corner, I could hear voices warning me, ‘Go back, don’t come near!’

I ignored those voiced as my curiosity had the better of me. I reached that corner and stood there for some time. I examined the whole area, and found nothing. I went back to my study. I was not able to stop thinking about the corner. Something was there, something I had not seen, something evil.

At night, after dinner, I was compelled to go back and again have a look at that corner. I appeared to be the same as earlier. Just one thing which had gone unnoticed was a book kept there. It did not belong to me.

I picked it up and started reading it. It had some strange incantations in it which were like tongue twisters. As I read them, the corner began to shake and I was sucked into the book.

Now, I roam as a ghost. The corner of the house is where I reside. I wait for the next owner to visit. Will it be you?
