The Expression of Joy

She smiled joyfully while looking at me. Her eyes were sparkling with wonders. After that day, she used to greet me daily whenever she see me.

A few days back on a Sunday morning, my watchman came up to collect society maintenance as he collects every month. But this time he bought his small daughter who was hardly of 8 years old along with him. Seeing a kid, my father asked me to give her some mangoes. The moment I gave her the poly bag of 2-3 mangoes, her expressions changed suddenly. When she came first, she was looking sweaty, dull and tired who have to be with her father for the whole day in sharp sunshine. But when she was offered that poly bag, a ray of enthusiasm came inside her. She seemed so happy as if the day was successful for her. Her single expression made my day and forced me to think on something and write this blog.

Many of us at times are dissatisfied with our lives. It may be because of less marks , or may be when some plan is cancelled, or when we are scolded , or when we are having no time to have pizza, or there may be some other reason as well. But if we think of these type of children who exist in many counties, who has to forget their childhood and  start working at small age or who has to think 100 times before buying anything or those who do not have shelter and stay on footpaths or temple or who are not sure if they will get supper tonight. These people do exist. Whereas people like us who can go to their favorite restaurant whenever they want, can dress up ,can party, can get good education, can fulfill their dreams are dissatisfied .It is really very contrasting. We cannot change the destiny of anyone but at least we can thank God for giving us birth in such families where our choices matter and we get everything in one go.
