Puppy On The Road

In present times, just about everyone seems to be very busy. Everyone is rushing to reach somewhere (although few people are actually punctual). No one has the time to stop for anything. But then, there are exceptions. Today morning while on the way to my office, I was touched by the gesture of a private bus driver.

As I was passing by Mumbai University, I heard this bus screech suddenly on the other side of the road. It was a pleasant surprise, as I saw a tiny, very tiny puppy (could fit into one hand) near the front tyre of the bus. The driver had stopped just in time. The cleaner got down from the bus and put away the puppy to its safety.

Few people actually take the pains to do such things. If we all can start doing such things everyday, the world would be a much better place.

“Tum Zameen walo par rahem karo, Aasmaanwaala tum par rahem karega.” (Have mercy on those who inhabit the earth, and the Almighty will have mercy on you.)
