Once upon a time, there was a small quaint village in the core of Italy. The village was nestled between rolling hills and a glistening river. There lived a young girl named Eliana. She had long, blonde hair that shimmered like the midnight sky, and her eyes were as green as the leaves in the heart of summer. Eliana was known throughout the village for her boundless curiosity and a heart full of compassion. She lived in a tiny cottage with her grandma and mother, and she had a huge golden retriever too.
Every morning, Eliana would wander into the woods that bordered the village, with her faithful dog, Luna, by her side. Together, they explored the hidden wonders of the forest, uncovering the secrets of nature that others often overlooked. Eliana's love for the woods ran deep, and she often imagined that the trees whispered their stories to her, secrets known only to the wind and the animals that called the forest home.
One sunny day, as Eliana and Luna ventured deeper into the woods than ever before, they stumbled upon an ancient stone door covered with thick moss hidden beneath a thick bush of vines. Her heart raced with excitement, and the door seemed to beckon her closer. It bore strange, unusual designs—highly decorated carvings that appeared to tell a forgotten tale. Eliana traced her fingers over the symbols, and as she did, the door slowly opened.
When the door opened fully, what lay beyond the door was a world unlike anything Eliana had ever seen. A luminous meadow stretched out before her, bathed in the soft, ethereal glow of the setting sun. Enchanted creatures were dancing in the meadow, their laughter sounding like delicate chimes in the breeze. Butterflies of every color fluttered around, leaving trails of stardust.
Eliana and Luna cautiously and curiously stepped into the enchanting meadow. They were greeted by a group of graceful, winged beings called Luminae. These mystical creatures were guardians of the meadow and were given the task of preserving its magic. They explained to Eliana that the meadow was a place where dreams were born and where the purest of hearts could witness their desires come to life.
Eliana, with her boundless compassionate heart, was the perfect candidate to explore the meadow's wonders. She wished for happiness and prosperity for her village, and in an instant, the meadow responded. The meadow's flowers blossomed with many colors, and the creatures filled the air with songs of joy.
Eliana returned to her village with a heart full of hope and the meadow's magic in her eyes. The entire village thrived as their dreams of abundance and happiness were fulfilled. Eliana became a legend, and people from far and wide sought her wisdom. But Eliana's heart remained with the meadow, and she continued to visit it, sharing its beauty with her people.
As the years passed, Eliana's story became one of folklore and wonder, a tale of a girl who found a magical meadow, touched by her heart's purest desires, and shared its enchantment with the world. And to this day, the meadow's glow can still be seen in the eyes of those who believe in the magic of dreams and the power of a compassionate heart.
जीवन जिउनु कसरी म
गुरु भन्छन, “पढ बिति जानेछ छ जीवन”
म भन्छु बाँचेर मात्र के गरुँ म
जीवन जिउनु छ मलाई
तर जिउने कसरी ?
जीवन जिउनु छ मलाई
तर जिउनु कसरी म
कसले भन्छ, होला मलाई
जीवन जिउनु कसरी म
बुवा भन्छन, “जिम्मेवारी निभाऊ बिति जानेछ जीवन”
आमा भन्छिन्, “सबैसँग राम्रो मुखले बोलिदेउ जानेछ जीवन”
जीवन जिउनु कसरी म ?
कि बाचूँ म आफ्नै तरिकाले ?
जीवन के हाे ?
जिम्मेवारी हो कि जीवन
रमाइलो हो कि जीवन
जे भए पनि जीवन जिउनु कसरी म !
डर लाग्छ कतै
जीवन बित्नुभन्दा अगि मै
बिति जाने पो छु कि
डराएर बिताऊँ कि जीवन !
हो के यो जीवन ?
कोही भन्छन्, जन्म र मृत्युबिचको
समय हो जीवन
कोही भन्छन्, पुण्य
कमाउनु हो जीवन ।
गएकाे समय कहिल्यै फर्किदैन
भएकाे समय भागिहाल्छ
रहेकाे समय जहिले हताराे हुन्छ
र समय भन्छ
मलाई सदुपयोग गर्नुहोस् ।
हामी बुढो हुँदैछौँ
हाम्रो क्षमता पनि हाम्रो उमेरसँगै
बुढाे हुँदैछ र हामीलाई धकेल्दै छ
एउटा ठुलाे खाडलमा ।
समयलाई अगाडि जान नदिनु,
बरू समयसँग अगाडि बढ्नुहोस्
आज तपाईं आफ्नो सक्दो प्रयास गर्नुहोस्
तपाईं भोलि राम्रो भविष्यसँग खेल्दै
रमाउँदै हातेमालाे गर्नुहुन्छ
र सपना सजाउनुहुन्छ भाेलिका लागि ।
समयले तपाईंलाई कहिल्यै पर्खदैन
तपाईंले पनि पर्खिनुपर्छ भन्ने छैन
समय र हामी आफ्नै रफ्तारमा
जिन्दगीकाे ठुलाे सागरमा
पाैडी खेल्दै, डुबुल्की मार्दै
समयअनुसार तर आफ्नै धुनमा
अगि बढ ।
आफ्नो समय आफैँसँग राख्नु
आफ्नो उज्ज्वल भविष्यको लागि साँच्नु
तपाईं आफ्नो लागि मात्र गर्नु
किनकि समय आफ्नै पक्षमा मात्र छ
अरूकाे जिम्मा यसले लिँदैन
गुमिसकेपछि लिन्छुभन्दा पनि दिँदैन
किनकि समय फर्किदैन ।
Making memories is the best you can do,
Let people decide if they want to go.
A simple thing could also be a memory,
Many things have happened in our vast history.
Memory doesn't need a set place or time,
Always try to be the first to take the prime.
Memories aren't solely about the win,
There's always something thrilling within.
Though we don't talk as we used to do,
I remember the times we spent, it's true.
I wish for more memories until the end,
I wish time could be a loyal friend.
The time we spent together was the best,
With friends, I looked my brightest, I confess.
They were the ones I shared almost everything,
I felt safe trying new things with them, anything.
Even a simple thing can be a memory,
Things that shouldn't be a luxury.
Presents need not be overly expensive,
Don't reveal a side that's offensive.
In the village named Hogsmeade, there lives a kind boy named Kevin. Kevin was famous for his courage and adventurous spirit. He liked to explore the forest and play with his friends in the meadow.
One sunny morning, while Kevin was helping his mother in the garden, they heard a loud and terrifying roar coming from the distant hills. The whole village trembled with fear. It was a dragon, a huge and fiery beast that had come to terrorize their city.
The dragon's name is Drako, with fiery red scales and scary eyes. He asked the people to bring their treasures to him, otherwise, he would burn their houses.
Kevin couldn't bear to see his friends and neighbors so scared. He knew he had to do something. With determination in his heart, he decided to face the dragon and save his city.
He ran to meet the old village sage, Mr. Merlin, who told him about a magical sword hidden in the heart of the Enchanted Forest. The sword has the power to defeat the dragon. Kevin knew it wouldn't be easy, but he was ready for the adventure.
Kevin traveled with his loyal dog, Rocky. They entered the mysterious Enchanted Forest, where there were tall trees and chirping birds. Along the way, they faced many challenges, such as slippery streams and tangled vines, but Kevin remained determined. After many days of traveling, they finally reached the center of the forest. Kevin noticed the sword emitted a magical light. He unsheathed it and felt a surge of strength and courage.
Armed with the magic sword, Kevin and Rocky returned to Hogsmeade. The city fell into panic, and Draco breathed fire, causing chaos. But Kevin did not hesitate. He stood before the dragon and said, “Draco, you cannot harm our city anymore! I have the right to stop you.”
Draco, surprised by Kevin's courage, looked at him cautiously. Kevin took a deep breath, raised his sword, and swung it at the dragon with all his strength. The sword emitted a bright light, striking Drako and weakening him. The dragon roared in pain then backed away and flew away. The villagers cheered, grateful to Kevin for his courage. Their city had been saved!
From that day on, Kevin became known as "Brave Kevin '' and he became a hero in Hogsmeade. He learned that courage and determination can overcome even the fiercest challenges. Kevin's brave actions taught everyone in town that you don't have to be big or strong to be a hero: you just need a big heart and the will to stand up for what's right. Hogsmead lived in peace, and Kevin's bravery has been honored for generations to come, reminding everyone that even a young, determined heart can defeat even the fieriest and mightiest dragons.
फुटिहाल्नु ती आँखा
जुन आँखाले कुदृष्टि लाउँछ नेपाल आमामाथि
फुटिहाल्नु ती आँखा
अरूको चरित्रमा प्रश्न गर्ने ती आँखा
के माया लाग्थ्यो र ती आँखाको
जुन आँखा बेवास्ता गर्नेको लागि बसिदिन्छ
के माया लाग्थ्यो र त्यो आँखाको
जुन आँखाले अहङ्कारका साथ सारा संसारलाई हेर्दछ
भन्छन् फुलको आँखामा फूलै संसार
काँडाको आखामा काँडै संसार
यी आखाँले गर्दा सारा संसार उल्टिन्छ
यी आँखाले गर्दा जिन्दगी पल्टिन्छ
के गर्नु म यी आँखालाई ?
मेरा यी आँखाले मलाई दुख दिन्छ
हेर्न मन लागेको कुरालाई पनि तानिदिन्छ
यी आँखा छन् मेरा पापी
कसरी सुधार्नु म मेरो यो बानी
सबै कुराको नराम्रो धेरै र राम्रो थोरै
हेर्ने यी छन् यी आखाँ मेरा
दुनियालाई नराम्रो बनाउँदै छन् यी आखाँ
भन्नछन् फूलको आँखामा फूलै संसार
तर के गर्नु मेरा भएका आँखा
तीखा काँडाले भरिएका छन्
अन्धकारले भरिएका छन् ।
शिक्षा हो साथी मेरो ज्ञानको प्रकाश,
सपना पूरा गर्दै, सफलताको साथ।
पुस्तकको साथमा बढ्दै गर्दा
मानवताको विकास,
सोचको पर्वाह नगरी,
उच्च उचाइमा जान बस ।
शिक्षा हो आफ्नो देशको उत्थान,
समृद्धि, सुख, अमूल्य धर्म,
क्रियाशील गति बढाउँछ यसले जान।
शिक्षा हो देशको भविष्य,
अन्धकारको शिरमा प्रकाशको ज्याेति
देशकाे भविष्य नै हाम्राे भविष्य
विकासकाे गतिमा साथ दिँदै अघि बढ्छ ।
शिक्षा हो जीवनको, सुन्दर भविष्य
शिक्षा जीवनकाे गति, शिक्षाले खोल्दछ ज्ञान
कहिल्यै नगर्नु आफैँले अभिमान
शिक्षाले सिकाउँछ यही ज्ञान ।
शिक्षक हुन् हाम्रा असल गुरु
जीवनका, ज्ञानको साथी
पुर्याउने हामीलाई माथि
हुन् शिक्षक हाम्रा ज्ञानका दाता ।
The soft light of twilight evening,
Time for the arrival of the stars,
A dance of shadows on the canvas of the sky,
Dreams that unfold quietly.
Beneath the silvery moonlight,
Nature's creatures lived with gentle grace.
Existence of all, born with life on earth,
Takes us to a mystical, sacred place.
How the moonbeams, they
Scatter the enchanting magic,
Painting the world in silver and gold.
Rivers sigh, brooks roar.
In the dark, dreams disappear,
Visions of the Unseen World,
Lost in imagination and lost.
Imagination rules, and the mind rejoices.
The preference for males in Asian communities is a common phenomenon, as supported by numerous surveys and reports. This ingrained preference, influenced by historical, cultural, and social factors, manifests in various aspects of life, from family dynamics to economic opportunities. But what is the primary reason behind this bias for men over women?
Historically, male preference was widespread because royal and common families could easily continue their bloodlines through male heirs. Men traditionally performed most of the physical and strenuous work, and even today, the legacy of this history endures, with men viewed as investments while women are often seen as financial burdens. As a result, men are granted more opportunities in education, job prospects, and even in terms of parental affection.
Using a personal example, I'd like to illustrate how men receive preferential treatment. A friend of mine, who has a sister but no brothers, has a male cousin who is particularly close to her mother. Her mother treats the cousin as if he were her own son, which is understandable given his parents' absence. However, my friend has noticed how much her mother favors him. She is frequently upset with my friend and her sister for minor things, while she consistently treats the cousin with warmth and kindness. The extent of pampering is such that her own daughters often feel neglected. Upon reflection, it's evident that this is a case of male preference, suggesting that her mother might have behaved differently if she had given birth to a boy, being gentler and kinder to her children while possibly neglecting her daughters.
Biases in favor of men are also evident in many family events. After a meal at gatherings hosted by family members, the men often leave their cutlery and plates on the table, with their wives left to clean up after them. This practice is baffling, especially when the sink is just a few inches or feet away from the table. The hosts themselves encourage this behavior, instructing the men to leave their plates, which are then picked up by their wives or the hosts. Men in these families are so pampered that they refuse to perform even the tiniest household chores.
Similarly, after marriage, the in-laws of the bride often expect her to take care of their son. While the wife is eating, one of her in-laws may demand that she iron their son's clothes for work the next day. This expectation is unreasonable, as men are perfectly capable of taking care of themselves. In most cases in Asia, they are pampered to the point that they lack basic survival skills.
This is not to say that there are no self-sufficient men, but their numbers are relatively low in Asia due to the strong bias in favor of males. This prevailing stigma against women needs to end, and a more open-minded environment should be created. Favoring men doesn't benefit anyone; it only fosters laziness and dependency on others for basic needs.
मिहिनेत नै नगरी फलकाे के आशा गर्नु
सफालता पाइन भनेर उपाय हाेएन त्यसकाे मर्नु
सफलताकाे बिचमा आउँछन् धेरै बाधा
भाेग्नेलाई मात्र थाह हुन्छ दुःख अरूलाई सादा ।
मिहिनेत खटिएर मात्र हाेइन भन्नू
बलले मात्र हाेइन, बुद्धिले काम गर्नू
पछि हाेइन जीवनमा सधैँ अघि सर्नू
अरूकाे हाेइन आफ्नाे भर आफैँ पर्नू ।
आज गराैँ मिहिनेत भाेलि पनि गराैँ
आफ्नाे काम गर्नलाई अघि अघि सराैँ
ढिलै भए पनि आउनेछ, मिहिनेततकाे फल
मन रमाउने छ, खुसीकाे साथ हरपल ।
सबै काममा साथ दिने हाम्रा आमा बुवा
हामीमाथि गर्व गरुन् हाम्राे काम हेर्दा
उहाँहरूलाई खुसी पार्ने हाम्राे सपना
मनमा यही कुरा लिएर अगाडि बढेकी म ।
यहाँ को छ र,
जो कहिले हाँसेकै छैन
न त कहिले हारेको नै छ
जो कहिले रोएकै छैन
कहिल्यै उठैकै छैन ।
न त कहिल्यै ढलेको नै छ
यहाँ त केही पक्कै भएकै छ ।
जसलाई कसैले कहिल्ल्यै
प्रेम गरेकै छैन
न त कसैले घृणा नै ।
जो कहिले कसैसँग तड्पिएको छैन
जसले कसैसँग हजारौँ सपना सजाएकै छैन
जो कहिल्यै छचल्किएर पोखिएकै छैन
न कहिले कसैसँग रित्तिएको नै छ
यहाँ त केही पक्कै भएकै छ ।
सत्य मैले अहिलेसम्म देखेकै छैन
न कहिले सुनेको छु
आमाको छातिमा पोखिएको
छोराको रातो रगत देखेको छु
यहाँ हरकोही एकान्तमा तड्पिएर रोएकै छ ।
मरी मरी बाँचेकै छ
यहाँ त केही पक्कै भएकै छ ।
कसैले कसैलाई जरुरत चाहेकै छ
कसैले पाएको छ
त कसैले गुमाएको
यहाँ मनहरुलाई कहिले
अरूले बुझाएको छ त
कहिले आफैँ बुझेको छ
कहिले मन सम्हालिएको छ त
कहिले आफैँ बिथोलिएको छ
यहाँ केही त पक्कै भएको छ ।
जसलाई उसले भन्ने हिम्मत गर्दैन
अनि दुनियाँमा सुन्ने चाहना नै छैन
Jealousy, a norm in life's grand ballet,
Some wear it openly, others in shadows stay.
In every facet, love, life, and more it plays,
A fleeting moment can unravel life's maze.
Jealousy, a tempest that hits so many,
They can't share their feelings, oh so uncanny.
It need not be displayed to all, we find,
But harboring it inside is not kind.
Jealousy, not confined to love's embrace,
It touches friendship, family, every space.
It's more about understanding than the bad,
A treasury of memories we've had.
