Prevention is better than cure Once there were two best friends, Raju & Mohan. Raju belonged to a very wealthy family whereas Mohan was from a middle class family. Mohan was very health conscious. He loved healthy and homely food. But Raju was just the opposite. He liked to eat food from outside. He never cared about the healthy food habits. He only cared about the taste. Mohan wanted to change his bad habits. So he warned him several times but it was of no use. One day they decided to go out to watch a movie in a newly opened mall nearby. Raju brought cola and burgers for both of them. Seeing this Mohan said:- Raju don’t drink it, its not good for your health. Raju:- Oh really, you hadn’t even tasted it yet. Then how can you tell? Don’t worry just take a sip....Its so tasty that you will love it. Mohan:- No my friend, It will cause health problems. I am warning you again and again. Why don’t you understand? (Mohan snatched the cola can and threw it in the dust bin.) Raju became mad with anger and shouted at him:- Mohan, I have brought you so many things and you are behaving like this. Mohan:-Oh! How can I convince you? It contains preservatives, artificial colours and flavours which leads to major health issues like kidney failure, different types of cancers etc. “PREVENTION IS BETTER THAN CURE” Raju:- If anything happens to me, I’ll suffer. I know what is good and what is bad. You needn’t worry. I am hearing this fromyou for along time and I am fed up with this. I don’t want to hear it anymore. Please leave me alone. Mohan:- Raju................ Raju:- Now get lost from here and don’t show your face again. Mohan left very sadly from there. Mohan went home crying, and told the whole story to his mom. His mother replied:-”Don’t cryhe might have said it in anger. I know your friendship, he doesn’t have meant it. Now forget whatever happened. Tomorrow go to his home and play with his as usual.” The next day he went to Raju’s home. When Raju saw mohan he said:- “You idiot! I told you not to show your face again. Then why are you here?” Hearing this Mohan returned home and as Raju said they never met again.Until Mohan heard his best friend Raju was in hospital. Mohan ran to the hospital where Raju was admitted. He saw Raju’s parents talking to the doctor, and heard the doctor saying:- your son’s unhealthy food habits has led him to kidney failure. Unfortunately there are no donors with matching kidney. Mohan asked the doctor that he was ready to give his kidney to Raju if they were matching. Thank God they matched, and the next day itself the operation was conducted. After the operation, Raju asked forgiveness for what he said that day. Mohan:- Its okey. I forgave you that moment itself Raju:- I’m extremly sorry for what i did that day. I realy didn’t mean it, iIsaid all it all in anger. Afterwards I wanted to say sorry. But because of my ego, I was shamed and wasn’t able to come in front of you. You were right.The Doctor told me every thing. It was my unhealthy food habit which caused this. Now I lost both my kidneys . You were right-Prevention is better than cure Mohan:-Don’t worry, At least now you realised the fact. Promise me that you won’t go back to your old unhealthy food habits. Raju:- I felt proud thinking I have a lot of money. But money alone couldn’t save my life. Your true friendship did it. You are my true friend because “A FRIEND IN NEED IS A FRIEND INDEED” I promise you- I’ll never go back to my old unhealthy food habits. ഗോപാലകൃഷ്ണ കമ്മത്ത് 9 A ടി.ഡി.എച്ച്.എസ്.എസ്. മട്ടാ‍ഞ്ചേരി മട്ടാഞ്ചേരി ഉപജില്ല എറണാകുളം അക്ഷരവൃക്ഷം പദ്ധതി, 2020 കഥ  സാങ്കേതിക പരിശോധന - pvp തീയ്യതി: 04/ 05/ 2020 >> രചനാവിഭാഗം - കഥ
