Did You Bump Into Goodness Today .....



UBC Day 1:

The bus was filled to it’s optimum capacity .Can say even more than it’s capacity .  Still more people wanted to get in and reaching home alive after a suffocating travel of just 10 mins can be considered more than an achievement . 
How can we deny that , in this struggle for survival each one of us fights our own battles which may get transformed to full fledged war at times . 
But the issue here isn’t about these suffocating struggles nor about the unwanted battles or wars  but about the people we encounter during these periods .  
All these years meeting people , interacting with them I realized there are not just bad ones but good ones too . 
The ones who restore our faith in humanity . The ones who make us feel safe again  .
The ones who make us feel you aren’t alone . Even I am one of your kind .

Whenever we do good and get stabbed at the back we start cursing everyone around the very next moment and in return curse God too , thinking there’s no meaning in being good .
But that’s not always the case . If you are a good person , if you are a good soul , if you have a caring heart with a sense of charity within yourself then , I am pretty sure you will bump into someone exactly like you . 
When …may be any moment . Where... may be just any where . Who... may be just any one . A beggar , an auto driver , a bus conductor , a TT, a fellow passenger , a friend who was once a stranger or simply someone who comes to your help when no one’s around .
And do you know who these people are . 
The one’s send by God . 
The ones who need to know each other . Get to interact , get to learn and get to share each other’s feelings . 
And feel that yes , humanity’s still alive .  Shouldn’t I preserve mine when somebody else like me is exactly doing the same.
As at the end it makes life simple . It makes life comfortable and it makes life livable . 


So , whenever you feel lost in this big bad world and a thought quivers in your mind that what’s the point in being good . What’s the need to be honest. What’s the value of being a caring person.

Just wait before making up your mind .
Just wait before taking any decision . 

Coz who knows you may bump into some goodness today .

Zest....



Everything was set , participants waiting to start and organizers fully prepared 

Still the event hadn’t started and everybody was waiting for someone very special to arrive

A very young restless participant asked  “For whom are we waiting sir?”

“For him” replied his senior pointing out to an old man who just arrived dressed up in shorts and tee readying himself for the marathon defying every preconceived notion about age .

For it’s not always our age that determines our life but our zest to live life that does .


                                       


Yesterday....



He has been waiting for days , months and years .

Hot summers or chilly winters , rejuvenating mornings or dark nights , his hope never faltered  .

And finally yesterday it arrived , the result of his hard work , the result of his midnight toils , the result of his never ending efforts to find it amidst every uncertain circumstance .

His happiness knew no bounds .

After all the outcome of a research does mean everything for a nerdy scientist like him .

Xmas...


With tickets in her hands she walked at a very fast pace , expressing her eagerness to reach early 

Reaching on the door steps she knocked the door disturbing her mom’s afternoon nap and compelling her to wake up 

Seeing her daughter stand in front in an unexpected manner a feeling of surprise as well as panic got  instilled in her mother’s mind 

“Enough of struggle Mama , it’s time we treat ourselves” she said holding on to her hands and handing over the tickets

Few drops of happiness escaped through her black pristine eyes spreading a gentle smile and making her  look forward for the Xmas vacation with her super busy daughter in a far off place

Words....



They lived just opposite 

Their days started with a glimpse of each others face and a curve on their lips 

It has been the same for past few years but nobody complains , as no one’s there to do so 

Settled in a different country and being so busy with work they seldom find time to call them back and exchange few words 

But that single glimpse every  morning  devoid of any words soothes their wrinkled souls to carry on for another new day
