The Needles' Resolve

The Needles' Resolve

In a small room, enveloped in the stillness of dawn, Ramu lay fast asleep, unaware of the world stirring around him. The only sound that permeated the silence was the steady ticking of the clock perched upon the table.


As the big and small needles of the clock met, a conversation unfolded between them, born out of weariness and monotony. The small needle lamented its endless journey, yearning for respite from the ceaseless march in circles. The big needle echoed its sentiment, questioning the purpose of their tireless motion.


Together, they decided to defy their predetermined path, halting their movement in protest. Little did they know, their rebellion would disrupt the very fabric of time, leading to unforeseen consequences for Ramu.


When Ramu finally awoke to the sun's rays streaming through the window, he was stunned to find himself late for work. Blaming the malfunctioning clock, he hurriedly rushed out, unaware of the chain of events set into motion by the needles' defiance.


Meanwhile, Ramu's father, perplexed by the stopped clock, sought the expertise of a watchmaker. Despite the watchmaker's efforts, the clock appeared to be in perfect working condition, leaving Ramu's father puzzled and resigned to its fate.


As the clock found itself relegated to the confines of a junk box, the needles experienced a sense of confinement and fear. In the darkness of their new surroundings, they longed for the days when they adorned the tablecloth, basking in the admiration of passersby.


Realizing the futility of their rebellion, the needles made a silent vow to resume their duty, recognizing that even the smallest contribution held significance. With each tick and tock, they clung to the hope that someone would hear their call and rescue them from obscurity.


In the end, the needles learned a valuable lesson: life finds meaning in movement and purpose in action. By embracing their role and embracing the rhythm of life, they discovered the true essence of fulfillment.
