THE BLUE BOTTLE





One night, Millie was up late reading in bed. She finished the book she was reading (The Story of Ferdinand) and looked over to her shelves to see what else she might read before she went to bed. Right there on her shelf was something she had never seen before. It was a blue bottle. She looked down into the bottle, but it was too dark inside to see anything. So she shook it. She heard a rattling sound. There was something inside! She turned the bottle upside down and shook it again, to see if anything would fall out. Something almost fell out and then it didn't. Whatever was inside was now stuck in the bottle's neck. Millie shook harder and harder. Finally, something small fell onto the floor. It was a piece of paper. On opening the paper she found that it had some lines written in her own writing...the paper read as- i want to travel around the world and let people know the beauty of nature through my writings about my traveling experiences. But she had long forgotten the dream in the fast pace with which she was chasing life. A strong feeling of nostalgia and emptiness engulfed her and she started to think that what she had lost in achieving all that she has.


She tries to think apart from the letter that she found but is unable to do so. The next morning she takes a decision and goes to her office. She submits her resignation letter there and leaves the office after settling all her dues. In a matter of few days she starts off for the journey of her life. She starts traveling round the world and keeps writing down about her traveling experiences. In less than a years time she has enough content to get her first book of her traveling experiences published.

She got her book published and today she is standing with a copy of her book in her hand. She is a happy and content person now and her life’s dream had come true. She is even richer than ever before as she gets huge money from the sale of her book. Her dream and interest had fetched her far more money, name, fame and content than she could ever have been able to earn.

So, always follow your interest and dream. It might not give you as much money as some other more lucrative work may. But, no other work on this earth can make you as happy and content as this can. Never deviate from following your dream for not everybody is as lucky as Millie who got a reminder.
