Description: The stories in this book first came to life on my Facebook page, “Mutumudalige Nissanka,” and across my personal websites. To my surprise and deep gratitude, they didn’t just resonate—they exploded with popularity across social media. The heartfelt comments, shares, and messages I received made one thing very clear: readers wanted more. They wanted these stories, not scattered across posts, but gathered together as a book they could hold, revisit, and treasure.

That heartfelt request became the seed for this book. I began by compiling fifty short stories, each crafted with emotion, meaning, and a touch of magic. And now, thanks to the overwhelming response from readers like you, I’m working on Volume Two—another fifty stories, fresh and full of life.

Each story in this collection carries something deeper—a reflection, a lesson, or a feeling. I write not just to entertain, but to offer something meaningful for your life. Many of these stories are inspired by my experiences living in 25 different countries, drawn from real people, real moments, and the breathtaking backdrops that shaped my journey beyond the borders of Sri Lanka.

Marriage, too, has added a unique richness to my creativity. While I may be the one who writes, my wife has the gift of storytelling in her soul. Her words paint vivid pictures in my mind, sparking the imagination that turns them into the stories you read here. Many of these tales were born from that shared magic—my imagination and her beautiful way of seeing the world.

I hope these stories speak to you just as they did to so many others online. I believe each one holds something valuable for you—whether a lesson, a memory, or a quiet moment of reflection.

I would love to hear your thoughts. Your feedback is the fuel that keeps my pen moving.

Live joyfully. Win at life.

 Victory to you always.
