Stories and all! Two men in the bus-stop

The first boy reached the hospital. His family was already waiting for him there. It was the day of chemotherapy for him. He walked towards the door of the hospital. It would be a long painful day for him. But he looked at his family and smiled. Yes, he would bear the pain of this treatment to be with this family! He entered the hospital with a smile.

So, you see in life, in our life we have both options and situations that we face.

Situation A was like ‘the wait’ at the bus-stop. Many are waiting in the ‘stop’ called ‘time’. The bus they are waiting for is ‘the fulfillment of their desire’. Sometimes, it is possible that the wait is long. Sometimes our ‘desires’ seems to get ‘deferred’ of fulfillment – as in bus that was full!

All wait! But the one who is ADAMANT that everything SHOULD work out his way would suffer the wait. He would suffer the most! Even during the wait that person would miss out on ‘moments worth living’ saying ‘but I don’t want this now, I want THAT now!’ This happens because we ‘condition’ our desire. We ‘expect’ it to go in certain pace and the way we want. We long to jump ahead of time and reach our desire.

But the one who is calm and collected waits! He enjoys the wait. He takes in every moment in this journey of life. He lives life! He is not defining life by only achievements and events. He sees events as just one more station of life – not the goal by itself. He doesn’t hurry. And so he lives life!
