Hi Friends,
I don't know how to pen down hell lot of thoughts which made me sad, angry, happy and confused in last 24 Hrs. Yesterday, when i was on my way back home, I was somewhat happier as it was Sunday, which means less traffic and i would get some more time to spend at home and also i did not want to miss the first ODI b/w India and south Africa. On top of everything, I was the "first drop", for a change, as the transport system in my current organization has driven me nuts as i am thinking about asking for the compensation of my part time (rather full time) role of a conductor as it is my duty everyday to sit on the front seat with the driver and keep calling the next pickups and get all the pickups done on time and on the way back home i am supposed to get down once everyone has reached their places safely and while this hell ride i look at my watch at least 10000000000 times.
So when i was reaching near Safdurjung, I was just lost in my thoughts but my eyes were on a Grey color Honda City, suddenly i saw three kids who just came in when we stopped at a traffic signal and they just appeared and they started spitting on that Honda city and before the driver of that Honda City could realize and come out, they ran away. All of the people who were waiting for the light to turn green, could not stop themselves and started laughing and then the signal turned green and we drove off.
I was thinking about this incident when there was another red signal to bug me and you won't believe that again two of those kids came and this time they started spitting on a BMW, however it was really narrow escape for them as when they got their target at the perfect position, the driver was just coming out and as soon as he saw those kids spitting on his expensive vehicle, he decided to catch them, but "jaako raakhe saiyan, maar sake na koi", so the signal turned green and everyone started honking but he(driver) did run few steps and that's exactly when i saw the youngest and perhaps most daring member of that "spit gang" as he watched the things closely and when the owner was away from his vehicle, he (kid) attacked and spit right on the windscreen and that's what the owner of BMW would have realized after sitting in. I wish I could click this , but i guess i was awaken enough to watch this, as this whole incident happened in about 10 seconds. That's when i learned...
1:How funny it can be if you spend at least 2-4 hrs on the road.
2:Traveling in an expensive car can be really unhygienic at times.
After 15-20 minutes of the above mentioned funny incident, I got down about 200 meters away of my home and decided to walk. I was feeling to smoke really badly and stopped at a "sutta shop" , after lighting the cigarette, i realized that i had only 2 Rs. in my wallet. Fortunately,i am living in that colony for last 3 years, so the shop keeper did not abuse me and just replied with a smile "are bhaiya koi baat nahi aap to aate rehte hain". This incident taught me two important things:-
1: Sometimes your empty wallet enhances your credit record.
2: Smoking spreads brotherhood.
I finally reached home at about 01:00PM, and started watching the match at 02:30 PM and switched off the TV at 02:40, when Sachin got out. Even this small incident had something to teach.
1: Forget whatever you have learned in your school, History never repeats itself.
2: Indian Team is not getting paid to fulfil my expectations.
I woke up at around 10:00PM. Switched on the TV again, and Oh my God! South Africa required only 28 runs of 13 balls, f**k !, I should have watched this exciting game, forget it , India is gonna lose it today, then came two back to back boundaries and I started abusing and also giving my “expert comments” like the fine leg should have deeper and Ashish Nehra should have thrown out of the team etc. After few balls, India won by 1 run and I started cheering. Again it had something to teach:
1: Don't jump to a conclusion because of excitement or frustration.
2: Dhoni knows cricket more than me.
At around 12:40 AM, I board the cab and was all set for both of my above mentioned SLAs . However I never knew there is a placed called “seva nagar” near south extension and even the person who was supposed to be picked up from there was on the phone line to guide us, it took 40 minutes to find his place which was about just 5-6 Kms from my place. As always I was quite open to get a lesson from it.
1: There is no end of exploring anything, so I need to get out of my house whenever I am free.
2: It's really wonderful when a cop stops you for not wearing the seat belt and you reply “arey ye sab chhodo aur ye address batana zara”.
So in the bottom of this post would like to mention the Bottom line which has come out from the bottom of my heart is that we don't have control over few of the things around,rather most of the things( or to be precise anything), So instead of getting pissed off with the the shitty things or some as***les around take the things as they come and try and enjoy every moment of life.
We can't remove all negative things from our life but it's up to us to take positive or at least some fun out of it.
Isko Implement kar dala to life..
Jhingalala.........
