It had been a long night indeed.I was returning from my office after a long haul of 12 hours and was in hurry to hit the bed.So,I was parked my car in the lot mindlessly and staggered out of my car with my laptop.As I stepped out towards the lift ,I heard a very agitated chirping of birds in the corner where a convex mirror was put to facilitate safe and smooth movement of vehicles.The calm morning setting made the twitter even more shrill.I was forced to look at the mirror.I saw that the two birds chirping so animatedly were trying to make countless attempts to cross thru the mirror and reach in to the trees being reflected in the mirror.The inability to do so, was making them feel even more miserable,least realizing the fact that the trees were situated in front of the mirror and not inside it.
It all looked ordinary till the realization started sinking into me that like those birds,most of us misled by the interplay of circumstances leading us to believe some thing ,which is absurdly contrary to the facts.Like we chase for peace all around the world,when it resides within us.Like when we think money can purchase us happiness ,when it can not .I paused for a moment,then moved ahead.Life has handed down a live teaching for me just now.
