The station was unpopulated….having least people
The evening had turned dark….
He was sitting on a bench – alone
Lost. Unpresent in surrounding.
Staring at one point….
An average looking man of somewhat 28.
Suddenly he bursted into tears. Yelled. Cried for a few minutes really hard.
He was fired from his job today for the 26th time.
He is working since he was 13. He is still finding his destination…..
His heart has broken.Not in love. Out of distrust that has peeped in his heart through his lost faith in himself and hardest done efforts that remained unfruitful ……
Trains came and went.
7-8 hours passed. He just kept on sitting there itself.
2:00 AM
A man in his 80ies. Came to tell him. “Son! go home”
He was a sweeper. In 80ies. Yet working. Doing the job that would be perhpas the toughest for him at his age…..
Sometimes we keep going not because we have the power to try harder but coz giving up is never an option in life…….
