I went to the railway station one fine day, or night rather. It was one of those summer special trains my relatives had to catch. By rule all trains should be late. And that is one rule Indian trains never violate. I took the time to stroll down the platform. Rats. Everywhere on the rails. A family of them wriggling around like vermin. I moved my eyes away in disgust. What met my eyes now was exactly the opposite. I stood in a trance. It was a pretty girl in yellow. Standing there near her father. I could not take my eyes off her. I did not care if she saw me looking at her. Which was exactly what was going to happen next if I continued what I was doing. She played with her hair a bit. Then looked up and saw me standing. I could not help but smile. Surprisingly she smiled back. A REAL smile. Not one just out of compulsion. One that came from inside. Half hour passed quickly. The train came. It left.....
She was 8...
Cha...!
Innocence is by far the greatest victim of time.
One year of my college life has passed. Like the train of time which took me 10 years away from her.
In our hearts all of us are babies . Atleast in a small corner. Yesterday , may 2nd was WORLD BABY DAY. How do I know? A friend of mine wished me, with a big grin. I just smiled. Then wished back.
Remember, a smile is one reason why God gave us muscles.
Live. Don't just exist.
