Psalm of an Honest Soul...

Jahnabi Gogoi

[TRUE STORY]

Like every usual day I was returning home after my classes . I have to walk almost 2 km to reach the bus-stop.While I was walking my eyes fell on this guy,who was sitting near a municipality garbage bin which was full with waste like always . Usually I would press a handkerchief against my nostrils and walk as fast as I could , that area stinked . But today I saw him and my legs won't carry me any further .I had to stop. I unzipped my bag and pulled out a 20 rupees note and handed it over to him.What I saw next disturbed me! He had somehow managed to pull out something to eat from that garbage bin. I resumed walking to the bus-stop but my soul in distress was crying out loud, wouldn't give me rest until and unless I knew he had something fit to eat as per human standards.

I went back to his spot with high hopes that he would be still there .I called him-Dada and handed him a poly bag filled with some food stuff,I bought .

I walked away. Didn't look back.I didn't want to embrass him!

When we named this blog INSIGHT ,we named it so that we could promote people to gain a deeper understanding of life and today I saw people walking past my Dada without even noticing him. Human will not be human without humanity.No, I am not a saint or a crusader.I am just a fellow human being requesting you to keep humanity alive !!!

I don't ask you to donate all your bucks in the name of charity,just do 1 good deed in a day.You wouldn't be helping others,you would be actually helping and nurturing yourself.

LET'S BE HUMAN AGAIN...
