Some time I think what I want and what is being given by god?
Often there is gap between them. Some things that is easily accessible and
available to other people while I am still struggling for that. May be I am not
eligible for that or even deserve for more. I believe in god, might not be in
ways the other people are. For me god is an energy flowing through all living
and dead material of the universe, it’s not just a painting or statue.
Life is struggle between what you have and what you want,
these two things creates the various scenes of play of life. God is creator and
interestingly spectator also of this play on the giant theater of earth. It’s
just a play, really.
In a cold morning, I was reading an article about cold wave
in Delhi. Minimum temperature was decreasing like the morals and ethics of
society. Then I found myself reading an article regarding people who are living
on footpath and having no home. They have to live on footpath during harsh chilly
nights. Sometime they found place in ‘rain
basera’ (night shelter), but for specially women they have more troubles
because most of the night shelters were for men only. Only few are there
exclusively for women. There was one story of women, his two children,
mother-in-law and father-in-law. Whole family came to AIIMS,Delhi for treatment
of his husband suffering from a rare disease. They tried their best but could
not save him. They spent their whole money and even don’t had to go home. They
have to live on footpath. Initially they managed to eat something by begging,
later they started to sell something on footpath. Sometime they even need to
give small amount of money to police constable so that they allow them to stay on
footpath. I didn’t understand why they are not going home now. It may be that
they still not have enough money or nothing left at home.
That article left a mark in my mind. At night, there was cold
outside but I was feeling well inside my blanket. I thanked god to give me that
blanket. God give us many things but we don’t realize their worth until we don’t
own them. My blanket was one of them. People often remember number of times
they encounter RED TRAFFIC LIGHT while driving on road but they often forget
the number of times they encounter GREEN TRAFFIC LIGHT so that they move softly.
That’s how god gives us things, silently. God works in background. Human have no
end of desires. That’s why we always want more from god and never got satisfy
by things we have.
Thank you god for whatever you gave me..
