When I meet this stranger and experience being stronger.


This story start 6th month before in my ignorance that I am getting noticed by a stranger who also live next to me. I moved to Delhi in 2008 and moved to this rented place- MalwiyaNagar.I could only recall that apart from few weeks I hardly knew anybody around me.
My days start in the morning, getting prepared and rushing to office hoping not getting late again, same mania happens in the evening same time, since I even don’t notice who is there. Yes while coming back from work I used to be time little relaxed, I walked down my street, buy fruits etc. That’s my relation with Malwiya nagar. On weekends generally I work or I go to meet my friends, over n all I had very low profile in this aria. I never expected that anybody could notice me expect the grocery shop man.
I always used to cross one small lane before or after coming to home. There I guess I realized about this guy who must be around in his 30es sitting on the wheelchair, one day I noticed that he always give a smile to me, whenever he saw me, in return after few days I also  gave smile. At a time I used to feel mercy on this guy and sometime I may thought what went wrong with him that he is on wheelchair.
Now the counterpart of this story, it happened, I fell down from the staircase and my hands swelled from wrist to shoulder. It started hurting when I move. I was appalled and went to doctor, there he cleared out that it’s not fractured, gave me an injection and put a bandage in my hand for two days. It was painful and irritating, this was really frustrating me that day. Evening when I was crossing the same lane, I was on phone talking to somebody and sounding very miserable, I saw him sitting on same place on his wheelchair.  This Man first time called me “Madam” I first didn’t even notice, then little loudly he again asked me hello. I turn back and replied HI.
He rolled his chair said sorry myself is Narender, mai yahi rahata hun, ( I stay closed by) and asked what happen to me why I am looking sad , I exposed him my  hand, and told him , I got hurt and this hand is swelled poorly and paining me. He chuckled and replied so what happen look at this legs even if you cut them I won’t even feel any pain, this is in sense . I don’t feel anything down part of body. I was stunned and asked courteously why this happen with you. He said I always see you when u crossed this lane, “Aap Mujhe bahut acchi lagti hai” I always thought to speak to you once but never has courage to speak. You please come to my house I live here only I said no I m getting late he insisted me to come and added don’t worry my uncle too is there he came to meet me. I smiled I went to his house, this was one room attached kitchen  flat, one bed two chairs  and one small fridge , TV was there the room. He gave me a glass of water and said, "I am from Jammu, loved driving fast on the hill and once I was driving I meet with accident and fall down from the height. He chuckle and said this happen 6 years before. I was in coma for more than a year; I was a rejected and no hope case. I asked then, I replied , “My spinal bone injured roughly, doctor said it has injured badly now only it can’t be recover, but I know it will recover one day I will be able to walk like others. After one year coma I was on bed for another year, I used to only see and fell around me not able to do nay thing of my own. Then slowly I recover and came to this wheelchair, Isn’t an achievement, he smiled I smiled and said yes. He continued Now I seat on this wheelchair own, and I can go alone to the washroom do my essential things on my own. I was almost feeling embarrassed for myself for cribbing a small injury while listening to him.
He was chuckling but I was gazing him thinking how come he seems so content. If this could happen with me, will I be that okay, certainly not.
In the night I spoke to my brother about this, he said few lines which were very realistic and true concealed aspect of life, he said “Narender made compromise with his circumstance. He has no complain except waiting for his life to meet a good end. A pessimistic and optimistic both meet the ends of life. But the choice is what which matter. He chooses to be optimistic and make other cheerful with his presence.
It’s been 6 years he is in on wheelchair he don’t know when he will be able to walk. I pray, the day comes early in his life.  No sympathy word for him, as I find him stronger than those who are not handicapped but yet not able to live life in optimistic way. May be I am too among those. We look for support sympathy in our life. He runs without those. Hat’s off to his courage.

one spark one song

One song can spark a moment
One flower can wake the dream.
One tree can start a forest.
One bird can herald spring
One smile begins a friendship
One handclasp lifts a soul
One star can guide a ship at sea
One word can frame the goal
One vote can change a nation
One sunbeam lights a room
One candle wipes out darkness
One laugh will conquer gloom
One step must start each journey
One word must start each prayer
One hope will raise our spirits
One touch can show you care
One voice can speak with wisdom
One heart can know what's true
One life can make the difference
You see, IT'S UP TO YOU!
wonderin if we can be friends?

Trust

Several years ago one of my fren and I were discussing about the trust, how imp it is in one’s life. I was quite young at that time, as I was in class 12th. I used to think once you lost trust, intently or otherwise you won’t gain it back. After several years, I find I m change towards my thinking today I believe though its difficult but lost trust can be re-establish. People say trusting people is too risky; I personally believe not trusting people are a greater risk. We like the fact people trust us, but why we are timid to keep our trust on other people, answer is we are scared to loss our trust. My god I am champion in this. Initially it makes me hurt so many times. But gradually I started thinking no this is not the way we have to take our life, our trust. The thinking trust belong to character has to change here, character and competence these are the two main tool of trust. Character includes your integrity, your motive, your intent with people, competence include your basic core capabilities your skill your result. Why m talking here character and competence. Both are different in terms all together.
I remember a line I read somewhere, will zot down those words, how they co -relate.
“Character is a constant, but competence is situational majorly deal with kind of circumstance”. We have seen people who lost trust or loose others; we usually end up with creating issue or end up relation. There could be any circumstance any reason behind a particular scenario, we hardly could think of, and end up losing trusting. It’s been with me several time ending up losing my relation, gradually I thought some where I m also loosing, and loosing regarding things is not a solution, figure out the problem and if it could possible to sort out the problem. As I used to say to my ppl its no harm looking at brighter side, it won’t have an effect on your eyes .Aap das baar haroge kuch pane ke liye par aap jetoge bhi agar aap ko yaqeren aapki koshish hai.
 See again character and competence.(yaqeen- (keeping trust is character of and (koshis)trying things in positive way is your competence.) Trust me.... :)

cheers....
