I get out of office snare

I was once having a lot of trouble in office. The result was that we
would remain tense and lie awake all night. I developed severe
acidity and suffered from lack of sleep. I could not even take leave
from office. This went on for one full week.

On Monday morning, next week, I woke up and found that my
right leg had developed a peculiar problem. I could not control
my right foot beyond the 90-degree angle. That meant I could not
stretch it and it would drop lifelessly whenever I lifted my foot. At
first it seemed as though it was a temporary numbness. But when
there was no improvement during the whole day, it seemed a major
problem was round the corner. Meanwhile, I had to compulsorily
take leave from office, as I could not even walk normally. I had to
drag my foot since I could not lift it. I got the leave—an impossible
request considering the situation prevailing in office the previous
week—easily.

Over the next few days, we were running around in hospitals
where a number of tests, particularly of the nerves, were done to
find out the cause of the problem. All the reports were normal, yet
we had a problem at hand. During this time I realised, that when
the need so arose, I could drive a two-wheeler and even the car. And
this I did, since I had to drop my wife to office, a few kilometres
away. Since I could control the foot when the angle was less than 90
degrees, I could drive even though the problem was in the right foot,
which is used for braking and acceleration.

The severity of the ‘problem’ helped me get leave from office
and the running around in hospitals for tests took my mind off
the tension. Three weeks after the ‘problem’ was first discovered,
I resumed work at office. I was fit and fine mentally as well as
physically. Where the so-called ‘problem’ had come from and where
it vanished to no one knows. The ‘problem’ was never diagnosed
and a solution never found. But this ‘problem’ did take away my
real problem. How Guruji solves our problems so perfectly only he
knows. And the jigsaw puzzle fits in place when he is at work.
