Suddenly the train came to a halt with that familiar screeching sound......... my thoughts i was too engrossed in.......so could not realize that we have arrived at the big junction ........a very busy station....people running around in all the directions of course with a set job or destination in the mind .........hawkers trying their best for selling better.............coolies,luggage pullers all trying to out smart others...........A peculiar din.......chaos..... noise of other screeching trains.....shouting passengers........visitors......
I was getting used to this situation...trying to breath long and deep.......and at least to remain peaceful...........in this chaotic....idiotic race....ignore it............
The stopover....got over at last and the train again started for its destination........
Hardly a few minutes later the train was passing through beautiful surroundings........lush green forest......beautiful flowers........butterflies of different colors.......green meadows........
Greenery of varied hue and color................expressive nature in its full form.
How could i imagine such beauty was present there at a distance of a few minutes from that chaotic station......simply amazing.......
Deep thoughts again engulfed me.......although my mind was at peace without any effort......different stages of life were flashing one by one.....i clearly remember my preschool building...the principal in his long white cloak...a wide field ......a playground with so brightly colored swings........me very comfortable there.
The very next year we shifted to another city...so got admission in new school .......had new friends...new environment...........got adjusted to it pretty fast......but look again father got transferred to new city....again a changed new environment..............
A span of around ten years was passed in may be twelve different schools in different cities.........each an every time a new set of teachers n classmates was offered with a different new environment.........
Sometimes i wonder ....how much adaptability is required for adjusting to a new scenario...........many a times not very cordial one.......a terrible sense of adjustment to a sudden change..........
Is life preparing us for the bigger pitfalls coming in the future...........
Generally when one feels very comfortable with one's life.....all of a sudden the whole background changes......the warm carpet you are standing on starts moving beneath .......making you vulnerable for another fall..... or....... giving a start for higher platform......
Life is ever changing...the moment you feel at rest it compels you to be dynamic.........and if you are moving ahead fast it compels you to slow down................so unpredictable...........
