i was wid my friend ...licking a "chuski" in a silent street ...only 3 children playing cricket.. rest it was silent n empty as if a cufue has been enforced. so i had nothin bt to look around.. observing the place... suddenly my eyes went up to the balcony of the house under which that chuski wala was standing. i saw somthin which i had nly visualisd through some chapters of my textbooks. a mothr & her son.. wid their heads out of the window,,, looking at the sky,,.. uhmm it wasnt a balcony.. bt a window only. at first i didnt realise what has hppnd...or y r they staring at the sky,, basicaly the oppost side of the sunset.(it was evening time)
they were looking for a ray of hope.. the son's father passed away.. they were in tension.. worry.. the mother being a quiet figure...n thinking who is going to earn fr the family.. who is goin to fill the place of the head of the family... who is goin to give support to dem. the son's face was like.. as if he is pleadin to god to give bak..what they have lost. his mother,, looked so worried. their eyes were saying it all. i couldnt stop looking at them.. by the time... my "chuski'' melted... my friend was also buzy watching the crickt match n in his "chuski''. i looked down.. wondered how cud i help dem.. as it was so desheartning to see them like dis. all these thoughts came to my mind while my head was down. but when my eyes again lookd up.. the window was closed. they both wernt there. still.. i cannot forgt that sight,, when they were staring up the sky like anythng.
One thing struck my mind.. that why were they looking at the opposite side of the sunset,,, ....no it wasnt like dat only.. their xpresions said it all.. so i went bak home n climbed up the terrace to find a solution. & i found it... i saw that the rays of light wnt opposte side of the sunset.. dat was wat they were looking for,.. a ray of hope. they didnt look at the sunset..with their sun,, already been set. they wouldnt have afforded to see the similiar sight again..
i still have a hangover of that incidence. i feel that we r so gifted that we don't have any dificulties in life.(touchwood) life is goin smooth .. its them who face the real disaster in life. we r so fortunate.. n i thank god for dis.. bt cant fight wid him for what he does to others.... hop u get it!!
