Miracle




                            



His work as the henchman of the Don was to foment trouble in other’s life and fill his 

boss’s coffers. He realized the gravity of the situation when he got a dose of his own 

bitter medicine. An upside down image stared back at him from the mirror. His life was in 

disarray.  He could not reverse the needles of the clock.


He wished to start life anew. He couldn’t fathom how he would break away. The 

tentacles of the underworld would spread to ensnare him. Death would be the only 

penalty. He prayed to Lord Shiva for a miracle. 




Today's prompt is the word  Miracle and the photo prompt via Pexel.

    Miracles do make everything possible! I hope the Lord grants it to him. Very nice take on the prompt, Kalpana.

      Karma will catch him up. But repentance and ask for forgiveness is acceptance of wrong-doing. Hope the Lord compensates him. Thanks Esha for reading and commenting.

    Karma doesn't leave you that easily! Hope Shiva can destroy him and all his karma, that's his only recourse.

      Karma spares none whether good or bad. Hope he gets a chance to reform and start anew. But what about the people whom he has troubled? Thanks Anshu B for reading and commenting.

    Yeah, he needs a miracle because getting out the tentacles of the underworld isnt easy. A great use of the two prompts, Kalapana.

      A miracle from the Lord is the need of the hour for the wronged person. Thanks Shilpa G .

    Oh he definitely needs a miracle to get out of this. Does he deserve it though?

      Every person deserves a second chance or a reprieve to start again. Hope he reforms. Thanks jyothi for reading and commenting.

    There is a proverb that says, "as you sow, so hall you reap". Its the way justice happens in universe.
    An eye opener story Kalpana.

    I hope Lord Shiva forgives him and helps him out of the misery he finds himself in.
    But, do such sins we commit ever grant us forgiveness in spite of repenting? We have to face the repercussions of our actions.

    This is very tricky and confusing. If Lord Shiva forgives him and starts life anew what about the people and their families whom had troubled in the past? Will they forgive him?

    Thanks Shilpa Gupte for reading and commenting
