These Lil sweet things……
And that was really a tiring day for me…
I was totally drenched by the sweat of travelling in a government bus and wrecked by the thought of being born in a middle class FAMILY…
Yeah this is really hard , u know…!
In a poor family , girls usually prefer to be self content …..
And in the rich families they are already self content but me ( the poor one ) is loitering between the poor and the rich of where and when I can become SELF CONTENT and quit these government bus travels in the mid of summer….
And by the way that is not the exact content what I wanna narrate now….
I just got down from the bus and I had to wait a while for my brother to pick me home…
I sat down in the hot steel chairs…
I took out my phone and viewed swiftly thinking that I was JOE BIDDEN and I would have got 1000 s of calls…
But unfortunately there was only a message from the credit card payment desk to pay bills as soon as possible…..
I randomly saw a very small feet walking slowly across that deadly hot roads….
I looked up and found it was the kid who sells safety pins , remote covers , combs etc.,
He wasn’t mindful about the heat and the crowd rather !!
He then ran swiftly to a person who was standing in small shops in the bus stand….
The Lil boy just gestured as if he was very thirsty and pointed out the packeted cool drink which will be around ₹30….
May be the Lil boy was fascinated about the desire to taste that one day ….
The man after huge thought process bought the Lil kid a small cool drink worth ₹10 and left….
Still the kid was satisfied and he took that to his bunch of brothers
( Yeah they were all look alikes and probably their parents are still not aware of the population exploition )
After enjoying a sip of the juice ( which was his only share )….he came up to me to market his safety pins….
I literally could picturize that he had such a beautiful career as a marketing person when he grew up …
But unfortunately these kids are never included in the growth of the society by the society ….
I got a bunch of pins which was ₹10 and gave him ₹20 …
He , without even a second thought took another bunch of pins and pointed it to my face …
How genuine he was amidst his poverty….!
I then hugged the kid for a second and made him have that money for himself…
He smiled and left the place ….
Few things the Lil boy left in me were…….
The dirt of his dress and the
Purity of his heart !!
It isn’t really the things that decides happiness !
It is truly the NEEDS that decides who u are…..!
