A Salesman

Today was Sunday and in the lazy afternoon when every body was enjoying the afternoon siesta my door bell rang.  I went to open  the door to know who could come at such a time and when I opened it I saw a man of 25-26 standing over there holding a travel bag. He was a salesman .After opening the door when I gave him a glance and he hesitantly asked me to give him 1 or 2 minutes so that he could show me the products he was selling .Although I had all the things with me that he was selling but being a little bit humane on my part I didn't have the courage to say no to him. When anybody doesn't like to be disturbed on Sundays ,he was going door to door to sell off his things so that he may earn something  for him self. On seeing him I felt that he must be in a great despair for doing work like this fully knowing that he might have to face insulting remarks like:"get lost. don't disturb us .Is it the time to disturb anybody?"
                                                                I saw a pain on his face and humbly told him that we had already all the things which he was showing.I asked him  for the glass of water and he went away. Here the question is not of buying the things from that person  but it was of that of  your behavior and conduct towards other human beings .When one has some personal motif from the other being he would definitely be kind and soft in his conduct towards him. But we should always see GOD in other living beings irrespective of our own needs and requirements, for who knows when GOD is there at your door-steps. TO BE HUMBLE ,KIND ,SOFT AND CONSIDERATE IS HUMANE AND GODLY ,WHICH IS THE  ONE AND ONLY DIRECT WAY BE ONE WITH GOD.  Try it with yourself and see how immense pleasure it gives you.
                                                

THE DARKER SIDE OF LIFE

Well this is my first try to write a blog.There are certain things ,thoughts and ideas which are common to every body.here I would like to share my hidden fear for death.we all are so lost in the sunshine and beauty of life that this realization of death seldom comes to our mind and seems to have no place in the busy life. it is better to write down your views when you can't share them personally with somebody. this thing is coming to me since last one month in which so many unexpected things have happened around me. one of them has happened with my maid.she is a very hard working and dedicated worker.for some health problem I was in bed for around one month.she lives in the premises of my house only .she was having a happy family of a son and a husband. she is the second wife of her husband and was rearing the child from her husband's first wife i.e her only son.he was a very healthy baby of three and a half years.he was having normal cough and fever for which he was being doctored,when all of a sudden a scream came from her house one early morning.............and her son was no more. this is not only about the loss of a child I am talking about but this is about the sacrifice she has made for that child. she could not give birth to her own child because she was operated for not having her own children, so that she could better look after that child . she brought up that boy since he was only 9 days old and forgot that she has not given birth to him.she gave him the love and care which she would have given to her own child. but this was the end of her story . this all happened in front of my eyes.a day before that boy was playing in my house and next morning his mother was crying in front of me for having lost him. Since that a turbulence is going in my mind about the life we are living and the time of end which only GOD knows . this incident has taught me a lesson that LIVE THE EVERY MOMENT OF YOUR LIFE AS A LAST MOMENT. Spread the happiness around you and help the needy . always keep the word DEATH engraved on the slate of your life so that you forget about your own pains and contribute to the well being of others.
