Be Thankful

How many of us take the time to throw a glance around on what’s happening around us? Sometimes, a look at the things around could teach you a valuable life lesson. Well, let me share an incident that happened to me.

One sunny afternoon, after doing some shopping in town, I was heading towards the station to take the bus back home. The hot afternoon sun was blazing in the sky, heating the whole atmosphere as if it had some kind of vengeance on the world. I could feel my shirt soak with perspiration as the sun heated up my body. My throat was dry and craving for a drink. I swallowed, hoping to get some moisture to my throat, but in vain.  I was anxious to get away from this scorching heat that was burning me up. I walked on as fast as I could, cursing the scorching heat in my mind.
