True Rumor

Once, God was angry and upset about human’s evil activities. The crime, cruelty, fraud, cheating, wars, and ignorance toward nature made God angry. So this anger turned into wrath. And God decided to make humans realize that here is almighty whose eyes are on all, good and Evil. So God created some hurdles in humans way like Earthquakes, hurricanes, cyclones, Tsunamis, volcano bursst, downpours, and storms etc. but instead of understanding God's Fury the humans didn’t heed this warning seriously and after a few times ignored all. So again when God saw that the graph of human Sins was increasing rapidly, God's anger turned into Wrath and this time God decided to destroy the planet earth finally, by Himself, instead of by humans (b coz what bad humans were doing ….one day this will destroy the beauty of earth the only alive planet). So God made a Giant fireball and threw it at earth. But when Goddess Saw all, Goddess requested God not to take any decision in a hurry and to think of the good humans too, not just the worse alone. So on Goddess' request God said to Goddess, “ok, I will slow the speed of the Giant fireball so that humans can realize the danger and change themselves. and if they change then I’ll change my decision too”. then God took a visit on Earth.

Here it was nighttime on earth and God saw a little boy was still awake and playing with some fireflies. He was trying to catch some fireflies and wanted to put them in his jar. God turned into a firefly too in order to know the boy more, and went flying around the boy. Then the boy layed on the grass and started staring at the moon and the stars. He then started counting the stars by fingers node, this made him sleepy with joy.

All these cute and innocent activities of the boy made God glad. God realized that this boy loves and cares for nature. So God decided to live with that boy for some days and to decide about what to do next.

The next day the boy went to school and God was around him. The boy heard the news from the school campus and students that ”a Giant fireball is coming near to earth, if this clashes with earth then earth will be destroyed”. The students, teachers, and other people were talking about the news. Some were saying it’s a rumor like the rest while others were afraid of the news. The boy asked one of his friends what will happen if the earth is destroyed, then the friend told that everything will be destroyed like butterflies, trees, birds etc.

So when the boy returned home, here again in TV channels was the same news again. Some were telling it’s a rumor while others were determining the time left for humans to save earth. Some were telling that earth will be destroyed as on………..date. but the boy was unhappy and upset of the news b coz he loves and cares for nature. So he went to the Church (Temple) and prayed for the earths safety. God was around him as a fly. The boy prayed, “Dear Almighty God! Please save the earth with that Giant fireball, b coz if the earth will be destroyed what will I see at night, who will be my friend , b coz I have only friends like fireflies, butterflies, birds etc, I can’t live without them so please, please, please, please…save it for me”.

This so cute and so innocent prayer of the boy and these nature loving words filled God's heart with Joy. So God decided to save earth for him and those alike him who will help save the beauty of earth. So God made lists of Good and Evil, and decided to teach a lesson to bad humans by another way, separately, And reward good humans separately.

Almighty turned the way of Giant fireball to the other side of the galaxy and saved the earth. On the other hand, near the boy God turned into a priest and said to the boy, my son! earth is safe now, you May Play now.

While on earth TV channels, people were telling about the recent news, some calling it a miracle that earth is safe now, and some were calling it a RUMOR. However it Was A TRUE RUMOR.

Since then many rumors are announced, like the one of 2012 and the rest. perhaps every time God reminds the good humans like the boy. Well God only knows what is TRUE and what is RUMOR.

Thanks for reading.
