Hello people, its been quite some time that I posted something on my blog. So, here I am comfortably sitting inside my blanket, and laptop and thinking about what exactly to write down?
So, I am not really a person who goes out and mingle up with people in the very first go I meet them, but if someone is nice to me, I do not hesitate to be nice to the person and helpful either.
So, I happened to meet this guy in class who asked me for my notes as he had missed those particular classes. I asked him the reason for doing so, to which he replied " Kahin bhi jaane ke liye waqt chahiye hota hai, aur jab voh hi kam padne lage toh insaan kya kare? " ( To reach any place you need time, and if the time starts running out, what will the person do then? )
I didn't really realize what he meant initially, and thought of him as someone who likes responding to people with his own delusional answers.But something about him was intriguing. I went on to question him further as of what his reply meant.
He told me that his father has Hemiparesis (Half Paralysis) and mother is fighting with Cancer. So, he has to take them for routine check ups and works as a typist and short hand assistant in the High Court, as he is the only earning source.
It wasn't something I have never been exposed to. We all know that people around us are battling with so many things, some of which we cant even imagine ourselves in.
In the meanwhile, the teacher came and started with the routine class.
I didn't really think much about it, after the class. While coming back, I went to a bakery shop to buy some stuff where I saw another girl asking her mom to get her a pastry. The mother was reluctant not to get her one, because of her Sugar problem. It saddened me, the girl was barely 7-8 years old.
Coming back home, I realized we have so much and yet curse friends, stalkers, relatives, circumstances, situations, destiny, luck and what not just to gain 2 minutes of happiness which we get after consoling and satisfying ourselves from the shallow lies.
For some, a little is more than enough, and for others even too much is less.
How do we decide for ourselves, how much is too much or enough for us?
Maybe we all know that, or maybe we will never know.

Very well penned. "Enough" will always be a relative concept and humankind may never be able to absolutize it. :)
ReplyDeleteHow much is to much for you?
