Empty vessel!
A crawling heart who wishes to fly can seldom find happiness.The oozing emotions inside your ever active body can sometimes create an empty vessel inside your eyes.
This empty vessel is empty because the water inside it ,is no more.
A Few days back ,I saw a lady.Lady ,with an empty vessel inside her eyes.She spoke nothing and kept mum.She was stubborn.
-------------------------------------------------
I am amazed at this world.Just look at the imbalance around you.When I used to be a student of biology,we were taught how our body is in constant effort to create a balance inside each and every organ .Maybe,that is the reason I never understood science.Because if it is always about effort,where goes the result?
The imbalance lies in this society too.People say happiness is everyone's gift..But, now I am down with dumps .Happiness is not everyone's business.It is like a rain which showers in selected places .I wish for a day when entire world will receive drops from sky on a single day because may be that will be the day when my hope of having this gift called happiness to each and every person present on this earth will turn into reality.
-------------------------------------------------
White saaree was wrapped around her tiny bones..tiny, because lack of food inside her body has squeezed her bones.She stood like a dead body and wall behind supported her lifeless body.
Her eyes were stuck nowhere!
Nowhere ,because when we are observing something we constantly think inside our head but I was sure that pain inside her soul has reduced her thought to nothing.
We all tried to know the reason behind her screeching silence but she did not speak.
Why would she speak?
The people around us hear the story behind our sadness for two reasons.one,they want to compare their sadness with ours to get an estimate of how their world is better than others and second,to get a glimpse of excitement which instills inside people's heart after listening gloomy stories .
I was infact proud of her silence.Because if she spoke ,where could the braveness of her silence screech?
I WISH FOR A DAY WHEN THIS LADY TURNS INTO A HAPPY GIRL AND THE EMPTY VESSEL HELPS TO TUNE A SONG OF JOY JUST LIKE THE PICTURE BELOW.
I WISH FOR A DAY WHEN SHE SINGS A SONG OF JOY AND HER GLOOMY SILENCE GETS A SHOUTING JOY AS A BEST FRIEND.
P.S- I am a volunteer at NSS(national service scheme).We got an oppurtunity to visit an old age home .Their was an old lady there whose husband was murdered in front of her eyes with a knife.
Very well written! It gave me shivers. And once again you reminded me of her, and her pain and I realized how (and why) I had been away. We should go there again, shouldn't we? it's been long.
ReplyDeleteThis semester was special!
DeleteLot of new expriences we gained.
Especially! Visiting this old age home was the best.
And ,yes! We should go there ..I mean we will go there soon
good write..given hopes to a very sensitive and delicate story. i deeply liked the idea of empty vessels and how everything hollow is not always bad.
ReplyDeletea refreshing read!
Oh! Thanks a lot.
DeleteIt indeed was a very sensitive topic.Most of us(girls) were crying there!
P.S- hey! are you Kanika Arora?
