While I
walk in the street, my friends and relatives complain that I walk like I am
going to beat someone. I guess the saying, “Walk as if you rule the world” made
a deep impact on me from my very childhood. Not only that, I love observing
people, their body language, their expressions and I also love to make guess of
the situation that they might be in the current point of time. If you have
never done this give it a try. Its so much fun.
Last
Thursday while I was returning from gym at around 6:30 pm, on my way I saw a
couple sitting in the steps of a closed shutter. Couple as in a boy and a girl.
The girl was carrying a baby, was saying something and her face were covered in
tears. Though it was dark, I managed to look into her face with the help of the
light of vehicles passing by. The boy was listening keenly. They were sitting
as close as possible and at the same time, not trying to touch each other. I could look into them for only a few seconds. I couldn't stand there and intervene their privacy.
This made me think, its not only me but everyone has some hidden story (secrets) in
their life. This brought another thought in my mind, “all human being go through similar circumstances in their life. No matter
how different we all are – we all are same”.
By the way they were seated, I made following guesses about their relation:
- They might have been in relation when they were in college and or school. All of a sudden, the girl was proposed to be married by her family. The boy was not independent enough and they parted their ways.
- Both of them loved each other but were too shy to express. They found out about the fact after the girls marriage. And now, nothing could be done.
- Both loved each other, were independent and in a position to lead their independent life. However, due to any of the social issue that are prevalent in Nepal like caste and race system, they couldn't be together.
- Or any of the reason you might find appropriate.
But one
thing I am sure of them was they were not relatives (brothers - sisters). It
seemed that the boy tried to move on and is no longer bind by that relation.
Else, he would have at least wiped off her tears with his hand or provided a
handkerchief (to wipe off her tears) or wrap his arms around the girl to give
her some comfort. His body language would not have shown resistance. And in
regards to the girl, I don’t think she was also so sure whether what she was
doing is wright or wrong.
The
beauty of future is - it’s so much subjective. One seconds of difference in
making decision, a yes and/or no few seconds before and/or few seconds after can create
an entirely different future. Past is past. It should only make us strong or make us wiser or both. Past experience
help in future decision making. If only they had made a right decision in the
past, which may be accepting their love in any circumstances and living it or
letting each other go they would have lived a different life.
No
matter what you do, no matter where you are, remember to make right choice and
choose a right and different future world of yours. At the end, choice that we
make throughout our life is the only thing that will rise us high or shatter us
completely. The beauty of future is - it is subjective and a single decision make a
world of a difference. Life is too short to be small. Make it big, choose right.
