Hello Friends,
In this article, I would like to narrate a small instance that I encountered when I was travelling on my bike.
I was on my way to the office, when I saw few people gathered on the cross roads. Approaching the cross roads, I saw an old man sitting in the middle of the road with a small kid (probably with his grand daughter). They were on a moped, and met with an accident with a car driver.
I had not seen the accident happening, so I better not comment on that. But, the scene that I saw was very enraging. A young stout guy in a white Verna, met with an accident with this old man. This guy, didn't even have the courtesy to get down and help the old man and the kid to get up and take them on the side of the road. Instead, he got out of the car and started shouting at him, boasting about his post and position, and the damage that the accident did to his newly bought car. And you know what, this mannerless guy was wearing a T-Shirt of "Being Human"
At the same time, some stopped there and with the help of a couple of guys more, helped the old man and the kid to move to the left side of the road. We parked his vehicle. One of the guys helping them, was a Doctor, and had a small First-Aid Kit with him in his car, who helped them cleaning the wounds and small bandages very fast. (That's courtesy I think!) One of them was so furious on that shout guy, he literally went to fight with him!! Almost hit him with his helmet in his hand. One more, bought a bottle of Bislery from a store nearby for them. We all departed in few mins after the old guy was feeling better and the small kid smiling at us!
After this event, I really felt bad for the old guy, he might have been in fault during the accident, but then looking at his age, should he have received that response from the Young Guy?
Tell me guys who was the real human in this situation? What actually that guy who met with an accident with this Old man would have done? Was he right on his part, for what he actually did?
Does only wearing a T-Shirt of "Being Human" make you a Human? Or is it that your deeds, your actions and your responsibility towards other humans make you one?
I would not like to conclude this with a Moral or something, you are the best person to decide it!

Usually on T-Shirts' if something is written, then it means that person believes in that, however I guess most of them, if not all, wears it for the sake of fashion or looking different, rather than wearing it for actual meaning ... anyway .. keep on sharing the stuff, good job ..
ReplyDeleteThanks.. you are so right, many people actually wear it for the sake of fashion without understanding its real meaning..
DeleteThanks for taking time and reading the article and thanks for the nice words..!
I will surely try sharing articles and stuff which keeps up to your expectations!

We Indians have forgotten how to "Be Human" it is all about money right now.
ReplyDeleteHi Chetan,
DeleteThanks for taking time reading and giving your views on the article. You might be completely right!
But, my views in this case are completely different.. I think this is just one side of the coin! Yes, you are right people have become money-minded and not just that, they have even started forgetting their values!
But then, there are people like you and me, the ones that I have described in the article, who came up to help the Old Man... And such people are there everywhere, not just India!
Sincerely,

Hi Varun, very nice article. Is this somewhere near Concorde building in Alkapuri? After reading, I feel as if I saw this accident. I can visualize it...
