THE GLOW WORMS IN THE CIMMERIAN WOODS


The glow worms in the Cimmerian woods enticed me  as I was on my adventure trip which was through the Amazon jungles.

I was promenading and jumping over some tree trunks and dog-paddling through the Amazon marshes carelessly. The beauty of nature intrigued me as I saw some alluring Kingfishers, few gargantuan crocodiles, and some comely rafflesia flowers. A hissing and perilous python almost cuffed me.

Slowly the earth rotated and showed me the darker part of it. I thought I was the only adventurer in the Amazon at that time. As I strolled in the woods, I  began to feel esurient and decided to stop for some time to take out my savories. While I was pleasantly munching my sandwich, the glow worms in the Cimmerian woods caught my fancy.  They were so captivating that I stopped nibbling at my sandwich and couldn't resist the beckoning view which my eyes were witnessing. The glow worms at night aside the moon were the only natural sources of light. As time crawled by, I catnapped and dreamt about the insects that I had viewed.

While I was engrossed in the scenic beauty of the night wearing a glittering veil, I thought of taking back a rare lesson that when our life becomes dark like a night, we should hope for these glow worms to impart us the wisdom to overcome our adversity with smiles rather than crumble under them in despair

I wish I could have stayed longer in that place, kept looking at those insects, and remembered my resplendent garden that is often inhabited by these petillante marvels.

Even the mastermind has a nemesis- James Moriarty who is equally genius but the difference is in his profession, Moriarty dreams to destroy the world but Sherlock never allows him to do so. The 7 C's of success is purely elucidated by Sherlock’s conduct. C for Clarity - Sherlock’s senses of observation and senses of logic are so immense that he gets to know his clients by just glancing at them: like he acquires the geographic location and transit of the accused and the accomplic
