The other day it was sankasti chaturthi, after a late night i still managed to wake up early, something kept my mind engrossed so much that i didn't realise it was morning already...I was realising that life was on a fast lane and that i might have missed the bus in few areas but it still wasn't that bad enough...so why was i so bothered about, i get into a flashback of the time when my mom passed away. Living alone for a couple of months was disturbing, its not that easy to get back from work and not to get to see the person around whom you had got so used to and loved unconditionally, i didn't now how I was going to survive, Your dear ones do call you but its just for that time and the rest of the time you are all by yourself... My life looked messed up, the only thing that drive me rather us (i am talking for my brother as well) at work and to compromise other things in life was to be able to do our best for the one we were devoted too...but now she was gone and so was the inspiration...Life was so void..
The only thing I did was kept asking myself what would have she wanted me to do...off course she wanted me to have a good life but how and where to start from...i had been living in isolation,away from social scene, friends and didnt have the luxury of time where i could develop a hobby.
2 months down, i enrolled for badminton and meet these bunch of lovely kids who really changed my life...I felt like wow I want to turn my life 5 years back again and live it to the fullest. A new promising job, good company and with no strings
attached, i certainly wanted to to go back to being 24....
Today two years down, life has been good, I have managed to achieve and perceive most of my dreams...and i am still at it...
It felt good but there were still certain exceptional areas of my life that has a lot of uncertainty and a doubt crept into my mind that will I be able to attain all that i had thought i had lost. Age and time was not in my hands but then what is within our reach ???
while i was submerged in my thoughts....i saw a small boy in front of me trying to help his handicapped friend on a wheelchair to get to the platform (well i was on my way to a colleague's place for Ganapti ans was fasting as well, i was at Sion station moving towards the exit), without a second thought I joined him to push his friend up the stairs. Though i wasn't strong enough to pull it off by myself, another passerby lend his hand and we both assisted the poor kid help his friend on wheelchair. Finally we all reached the top and without saying a word we all parted ways, it was all so quick that there were no second thoughts...
Suddenly I start feeling good about it, like i was pleased with what i did...i kept myself in the boys place and tried to relate that did he ever imagine that while he tried with all his strength and faith to help his friend that 2 strangers would just came up to them and helped them out...where we acting on gods behalf...was I one of his agents....i guess angel would be more appropriate..
Well there was a message for me in there...all these while i was feeling lonely and that there was no one
who would be watching over me, this incident made me realise that there a grace that's looking after you, you just need to push and keep the faith.
Like the boy pushing his wheelchair friend, I was pushing my dreams to reach my goals and the agents are around me to help me out...from that moment i am at peace with myself and I keep saying "Focus on your goals and keep the faith that the angels are around to give you the momentum...you are not alone!"
