Power of Smile
Not many days before when it was a rainy season and I was upset by my sedentary life style I was craving for something good to happen to me.The great Indian Delights in rainy season is “Samosa and Chai” so I went to the nearest market to my home .For a change I took a route which was short but ironically was tougher one and that too in a rainy season like this ,drenched all over.
It was miry everywhere and it was hard to drive my “90’s” kinetic @20 KMPH (…Smile..) as it used to stop everywhere as if rain was a challenge before Kinetic manufacturers as they get down in rainy season.While I was crossing a road and I lost balance ,I found a person hurrying up from other direction towards me .Being a young blood what will u expect from me ,yes I was fuming up and decided to fume over the other end.
But ironically what happened was after seeing him smiling, my anger went away just in few seconds, rarely this happens in metro cities (I live in sub urbs) where there are ego clashes, people using their powers to belittle opponents which is very critical of them. So when he smiled I imitated him with the same gesture and it was all over .What was the aftermath was ,he left a good impression over me.But had he or me started fighting and arguing it would shown a juvenile nature of us.
A similar case happened when I was crossing a road @ “Dilli-17” which is full of cars cabs and other cars.A peak time of Saturday evening and I was passing this small road.I have a penchant for evening walk on weekends.Everyone in Delhi wants to be first ,Whether an auto driver a richshaw puller a car a bicycle etc.A cab driver driving very fast suddenly saw me crossing road and applies last minute brakes.I was prepared to exhume my anger and ponder over him but his mere smile instigated in me a sense of feeling a sense of maturity of forgiving with a gesture.A smile which made the difference ,A smile if would not have been there @ that time consequences would have been abominable.
The power of smile which destroys harsh feeling for others,a power which always supports you from inner self,a power which is innate you can’t develop it,a power a sense of right or wrong,a power which highlights alter ego,a power which equips you with extra advantage over others,indirectly you are controlling the situation,indirectly u r the epicenter of the earthquake which could have come if u would have not smiled,A POWER OF SMILE
