High on Life

I was walking down the stairs after a long day at office and my friend asked me why I was smiling. All I had to say was “I am never unhappy, I never frown”. Life is too short to keep thinking about oneself. There is so much love so many people waiting to share love, craving for love, never felt loved.

They say “There is no humanity left”. I never understood this sentence. Every day I walk I see something that catches my eye and moves my heart. I am just listing a few things that will never fade from my memories.

Just the other day I saw a kid riding his bicycle on wrong side of the road. Probably he was too young to even know it was wrong. A young man was jogging in the opposite direction as the kid passed by he realised he was wrong. He kept calling that kid but he did not hear. He indeed went a few steps to him stopped him and just guided him. I was touched by that. He was a stranger a nobody to him yet he took that little pain.

Sometime back, I was in a bus with my friend. While I was talking he suddenly stopped and did that gesture what we Indians do when we see a temple. I looked around to find nothing but cars, bikes, buses honking at each other. I turned to ask him where he found temple while he just smiled the other friend pointed out that there is an ambulance on the other side of the road. He just prayed for that person. I was so over whelmed at that moment. I could see God resides in all of us. Apathy of fellow human being brings tears and pain to anyone around. From that day whenever I see an ambulance trying to nudge through Bangalore traffic I silently pray to God to save him.

Another moment just brings tears to my eyes. Around my house there lived a widow who was bread winner for a family of four. I saw her everyday while I studied in my balcony arranging her condiments cart to stand before a school and sell them. I saw her at times making only rice and serving it with chilli powder to her kids. I cried when I saw that. She looked content always happy with her life. Smiled everyday and told only one thing my kids should study like you. In her meagre hand to mouth salary she got a basket of fruits during Ramadan for me because she felt that I am in tenth standard and my board exams were nearing. I was too young to return her back anything but I will remember her till last day of my life. I had made a mental note how I could support her son’s studies and she will soon be in a better financial position. She passed away before this happened but I was proud to say he passed with first class in his PUC. When they say money does not bring happiness this incident comes to mind.

  
If I go on I can list umpteen incidents. Certain incidents leave indelible memories in your mind and occupy a large part of your heart. As my friend rightly says “It’s the small things that make life worth living”. I would never disagree.♥Feel happy in every small achievement of others and yourself.♥ Smile at someone and he will smile back at you.♥Plant a seed and see it grow into flowers♥. Share a meal♥ Look at yourself and admire ♥ Give and never expect ♥Compliment someone♥

.♥ Be yourself you are the best.♥ Laugh at yourself. ♥Just be happy and kick all your worries.♥It will make you spiritually high♥. It might take little effort but will result in convivial atmosphere in this world ♥I am no preacher to give sermons here just another person filling the diary of my life with beautiful people.

World is full of love, make place for everyone in heart it is too big.
