Thus was complaining my friend to me a bit sadly on an evening. I smiled and said,
"Don't worry, dear! I'll try to convince and educate the boy. Let me talk to him once!"
Accordingly I met the boy the next day evening and after few enquiries asked him,
"Dear! I'd like to tell you a story. Don't mind listening?"
The boy said,
- "Sir, You are elderly and you always tell for our good. I'm listening!"
I continued,
I was sitting at a coffee shop in the middle of a huge garden reading the book
"GREY HAIR WISDOM!"
When a very elderly man passing that way smiled at me and said..
'Beautiful weather, isn't it?'
For a moment, I couldn't understand what he was saying but quickly smiled saying,
'Yeah!'
"GREY HAIR WISDOM!"
When a very elderly man passing that way smiled at me and said..
'Beautiful weather, isn't it?'
For a moment, I couldn't understand what he was saying but quickly smiled saying,
'Yeah!'
Simultaneously feeling within me with the heat around,
'Funny old man.. He doesn't know what to talk!'
And having a second look at the book in my hand
Days passed and the weather continued to become hotter and hotter. On one of those days, I had to move out on a particular afternoon sitting at the same coffee shop reading the remaining part of the same book
"GREY HAIR WISDOM!"
When the same elderly man whom I met earlier came there saying,
"God! What a heat!"
I smiled at him, nodded my head but was laughing within myself..
'Yes, dear! Sometime back you only called this weather beautiful!'
But do you know dear,
Now tell me.. Don't you agree that what your dad tells you at this point of time are sure

But do you know dear,
After a short while, a strange feeling overtook me..
'Yeah! He was right.. The weather here is pretty hot in summer and these months its max and so those few months back it was pretty cool only..
How I mistook him at that point of time and thought him to be meaningless? Actually, I was foolish in not able to understand his matured talk!'

DeleteThe boy said, "Sir, You are elderly and you always tell for our good only.. I'm listening!"
ReplyDeleteThis unfortunately is itself missing in the 21st century....How does other things then follow?
You mentioned the right point here, Rajeev.. Young people sure listen many times except a few.. There too, if elders can convince their good in that, they definitely appreciate it.. Acceptance follows sooner or later!
