When did you last thank God...?
Monday, February 25, 2008
Peculiar question isn't it? But frankly ask yourself, when did you last thank God? For the wonderful experiences he has provided you. For the good days he has presented you. And for the beautiful life he has pictured for you..!!!
We often complain how bad things are and how God is torturing us. But have you ever seen the Blind person struggling to cross a road, worried about the vehicles he can only sense. He is not very sure which vehicle may come from any side cause he can't really see the vehicles speeding by the road.
Have you ever seen a deaf guy standing on a railway platform but wondering about the arrival of train. Cause he can't listen to the announcements of trains. Or a deaf person who wishes to interact with you in much refined manner but really can't. Cause he can't just listen and understand the words you utter.
Have you seen a dumb person who tries hard to convey his feelings but he can't. Cause he can't utter any words.
The other day, I was walking by the road. I saw a blind guy who wanted to cross the road. He was taking a step ahead and then coming back. Cause he wasn't very sure which way the speeding cars are heading. All he could do was sense the sound of the cars and have a guess about the direction of the cars.
One another evening, I was walking through the FOB at Bandra stations. A blind begger was sitting there waiting for someone to drop a coin in his pot. A police constable came with a thick rod. Hit that begger and walked away. Thew poor fellow could not do anything other than shouting loudly and crying for a while.
When such incidents happen around me, I thank God for the complete bod he has provided to me. Thats a gift by the Allmighty for which I will be always thankful to him.
