My mother in lawwas coming to Kanpur from Bihar. My car was not serviceable. I took my bike and went for receiving her.
The train was indeed overloaded. But, as I was knowing the Boggy No, she was located and helped to come out. But, the luggage was awesome. She had two big plastic bags full of materials like home grown vegetables, fruits and some prepared eatables for me. The luggage also included two sky bags, fully loaded with all the personal items.
I searched for some collie, but did not find one. I, being a fauzi, remembered my tough training days of initial years. I gave the lighter skybag to my mother in law to carry and took one at my back and the big plastic bags on my two hands.
But, with the enormous load, moving ten steps was a big challenge for me. We were at platform No 3 and had to cross one pool, full of moving persons. I could never maintain my desired pace. Irritation crept in more and more as I could not show it to my mother in law. At one instance, I felt that enough was enough.
But, giving up was a humiliating option for me. I carried on. In next 15 minutes I was outside the station. My both the hands, including the ten fingers were shaking from inside. But, I felt as if I conquered Mount Everest!!
I learnt that one should always keep himself/herself fit to as much degree as possible. It ALWAYS helps. Being physically also keeping mentally agile and up.
Friends, please keep yourself into a wellness system. Be as much close as possible to nature. It ALWAYS pays.
