On a Saturday, you switch on your
television set and the screen is still blank. And then you realize that there’s
a power cut. Dismayed, you go on for some other household work. When the
electricity resumes, the TV automatically switches on with a blaring sound. You
and your family members go berserk hunting for the remote control to reduce the
volume of the TV set. Every family member thinks he/she saw the remote control
at this or that place. Then, how on earth did it vanish? This mystery still
continues for many of us for a lot of things.
Before you go out, you frantically search
for your house keys or car keys. And then, again the question comes: how on
earth did they vanish? You try asking your family members about the lost treasure
and the answer comes: how would I know? Or the nail cutter goes missing from
the drawer when someone from your family needs it. Or even the water from the
bottles stored in the fridge goes missing after you are back from work and you
are in dire need of some cold water.
These are few of the examples which carry
on in our daily lives. Sometimes, the pen is missing when you have to urgently
note down a phone number. Worse, even your cell phone can go missing and
desperate calls from your landline or from others’ cell phones may not help you
find your phone if your phone is in a silent mode. Then, the question is back:
HOW ON EARTH DID IT VANISH?
Well, there is no solution to this question
and we have to live our lives with this mystery which has or will usurp half of
our lives.
