I have been in the city of joy, fun, music and antiques for six solid months now. I board public transport for all transport requirements. My best eateries are fast food outlets on the pavements (not because they are excellent but because they provide fresh cooked food) and I am gaining weight!
I travel for over 2 hours daily in a bus, metro or otherwise. I find a lot of aged, senior citizens boarding the same, and I make a point to leave my seat for them. They need more support than I. Period.! If I can think this way, then why can't I find many more others doing the same? Definitely there are few who do the same, and few who go even beyond to demount and help a few to cross a road. That doesn't go too far considering the population.
We need more hands to help another. It is the need to make a better place. It costs us nothing but rewards us. Helping the old, a mother with a child, a specially enabled to find their ways. I am mocked at but I find pleasure even in the mockery. I know goodness is mine to earn and kindness is mine to show.
Imagine a day when each of us are old, aged, wrinkled and alone! Who then shall be by us?
