Accidents may also prove good!

As I was moving on a bus, recently, it met with an accident... The bus in which I travelled and a truck, which was climbing the road after taking a load of sand, dashed against each other. There was no injuries-Thanks to God and the well equipped brake- but for the broken glass in the front of the bus.

The bus stopped and we were all asked to get down...

Just then I watched the roadside scenes... There were lush greeneries on one side... Bamboos... Neem trees... And many more trees (which I don't know the names...)

A small girl came near my suitcase and started to pull the handle from one side to the other... May be she was bored to stand simply! I never noticed the kid when I was in the bus. May be she was sitting in the seat next to me.... I went near her and asked if she can carry it.... She smiled and clinged to a lady next to her, presumably her mom... She also presented me a little smile....

There was a gang of friends... Their bags and speech showed that they were returning home after a jolly trip. They were not worried to reach home early. They were enjoying the accident too! I felt that their fun was not just because of the fearlessness of youth, but also that they cared for nothing when their friends are near!

There were old people, babies... different persons worth noticing...

I didn't speak with anyone or try to make friends.... But the thought that we were sitting in the same bus a few minutes ago made us feel that we know each other... I felt foolish that I missed the oppurtunity of watching them all before and was reading a book...
Of course.... The world and the people around are more interesting to read- than a mere book!!!!
