Never Give Up

 Never Give Up

Once, somewhere in England, there was a lovely girl named Alexis, born to a rich and happy family. After a period of about three years, she had a sister called Xiella. They lived happily. 

From her school age, Alexis loved playing basketball. She also taught her sister the sport. 

Years passed by. They grew older. From the age of 9, Alexis had a dream of being a part of the British Basketball Team, or the BBT. She practiced a lot. When she was 22, she decided to go to the auditions. 

The audition was in London. She had to travel by air. On her way to the airport, she met with an accident. Her hand was cut off. Straight away the people around took her to the hospital. Her parents and sister were informed and they soon arrived. The doctor said that she was out of danger but her hand..., she could not get back her right hand. 

When Alexis knew about this, she was weeping but then stopped and said to herself,” I lost my hand, so…, does that mean I can’t do anything, and my dreams can never come true? NO! My dreams can come true, and…, I…, still can succeed in life and reach my goals. I will NEVER GIVE UP!”

She had fixed a plastic arm to herself. She went for the auditions and was also selected. What Great News! She was the captain. Her first match was with Germany. Her team won and she was also considered to be the best player of the match.  

She played many matches also in different countries.  She grew old…

Once she was very sick. Her friends had come to visit her. They were talking, and after some time, on the spot, she met the last minute of her life, she died, saying:

GO FOR YOUR DREAMS,

NEVER GIVE UP, NO MATTER WHAT MAY STOP YOU….”

Many people were inspired by her. Her sister, Xiella is also included in this.

PRECAUTION: THIS IS NOT A TRUE STORY!

Dynamic Bats

Bats look like a small brown mouse. They have a fox like muzzle large ears and a neck, which is short and well covered with fur. They are flying mammals. They can fly but they are not birds. They do not have feathers on their wings like birds Instead, they have double layers of skin stretched over their bones There are nearly a thousand different kinds of bats which vary in size. The largest bat has been recorded as having a wing span of over 150 cm. But most bats are small creatures with rather large wings. A vampire bat's body is only about 9 cm long with a wing span of up to 18 cm. Most bats are nocturnal creatures, which means that they are active only at night. They sleep during the day and come out at night in search of food Bats hang upside down by their fret when they rest or sleep. They often live in caves where there may be thousands of them crowded together on the walls and ceiling. Smaller bat colonies of up to twelve bats may live together inside a hollow cave. The...

World Asteroid Day

What Is International Asteroid Day? International Asteroid Day is a global event dedicated to educating the public about asteroids, their impact on Earth, and the ways we can protect our planet from potential asteroid threats. It serves as a reminder of the importance of vigilance and scientific advancement in monitoring the skies.   Why Is June 30 an Asteroid Day? June 30th was chosen to mark International Asteroid Day because it commemorates the Tunguska event, the most significant asteroid impact in recent history, which devastated over 2,000 square kilometers of forest in Siberia on this day in 1908. On this day in 1908, a massive explosion occurred in Siberia, believed to be caused by an asteroid or comet exploding in the atmosphere. This event released the energy equivalent of up to 15 million tons of TNT, flattening around 2,000 square kilometers of forest and knocking down 80 million trees. Despite occurring in a remote area, the explosion had global atmospheric eff...

Lazarus, Come Out!

Heroes in the Bible:  Lazarus, Come Out! Scripture Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live: And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this? John 11:25 Have you ever wondered why God’s timing feels so different from ours? When Jesus learned that Lazarus was sick, He didn’t rush to his side. Instead, He waited two days before going to Bethany, where Lazarus had already been in the tomb for four days. Why would Jesus delay when His friend was in such desperate need? Jesus’ response reminds us that God’s plans are always purposeful. “This sickness,” He said, “is not unto death, but for the glory of God.” What situations in your life feel delayed, but may be an opportunity for God’s glory to shine? When Jesus arrived, Martha expressed her faith, saying, “Lord, if You had been here, my brother would not have died.” Jesus answered her with one of the most profound declarati...
