Go ahead .... you wont have shortage ... but are you sure ... your children wont


Year… 2999- Old Woman in the corner of stage  trying to make a fire. With 2 sticks, nothing happens. Again with 2 stones… nothing happens again…
A small kid comes to her.
Kid: Granny … Whaaaaattt u doooooooing
Granny: trying to make a fire Honey, it’s getting cold.
Kid: Hmmm I am hungry.
Granny: Let me find something to eat,
Kid: Let me help you.
Both go to different corner and start searching. Kid comes running back
Kid : Granny!! Granny!!– Look what I found … a paper … when people in it and there are colorful Suns everywhere.
Granny: What where…
Kid: here here …
Granny: Ah!! My last Christmas with lights…
Kid: lights???
Granny looked at the confused face  
Granny: Na nothing honeys. Leave it…
Kid : Noooo I wanna know .. please tell me
Granny: OK OK !! When I was of your age, We use to have something for The electricity
Kid : The Electricity … ooooooo
Granny: Yes! It use to bring light in this little glass balls called bulbs …
Kid: Bulb !!
Granny: But honey. We didn’t value electricity. We didn’t value any of you natural resource and all got over when I was 20.
Kid : Got over!! So So .. I can’t see THE ELECTRICTY  the light in the bulbbb

Granny:  No Honey, you cant
Kid: Why did you use it all… don’t you love me ,,, you should have kept some of it for me right ??
Granny : I… I…
Granny  keeps her head down… Kid leaves the stage in tears .

Final Note:
This Granny might not be you… but DO you want your kids to have a sorry face in front of their Grand kids.. Then Go ahead !! Use it lavishly. Or you think your great grand kids are worth having Electricity. Please work towards saving Electricity!!!
