Life springs up such wonderful surprises!!

The other day, I had gone to a shop to get my mobile's talk time recharged. An incident happened which set my thought process working. As I recharged my mobile, two young girls came with a small girl who would have been around two years old. Within seconds I heard the little kid say "Maney naani rickshaa joiye." (That's 'I want the small rickshaw' in Gujarati.) One of the ladies told the kid "Ahinyaa rickshaa naa hoy." (You won't find rickshaw here.) "Chhe" (It's there.),  the kid said immediately.   When the lady told the child to point out where the rickshaw was,  she pointed to one extreme corner of a showcase. And there it was, a yellow and black toy rickshaw. All those who were present in the shop were amazed at the outcome. How could such a small child observe things which adults missed out?

Isn't it true that we miss out on so many little joys that life gives us almost every day? May be, that's because we have our own set of prejudices, snobbishness, ego. We do not see things with an open mind. That child taught me to look in the corner of our own hearts, to find the real 'me'. Somewhere in the corner of my heart, I am snobbish too. I do not take defeats in the right spirit. I blame others easily. It's time that I change myself. If  I can change myself, the world will surely change too.
