The Journey

It was early in the morning before the sunrise. I packed my bag and rushed to catch the bus. Luckily, I was on time and my journey begun. It was the time for sunrise. I could see the red sky and the rising sun and the mild rays of sun touching the tender leaves. The rays of sun made the tender green leaves sparkle. I was travelling in a public transport enjoying the bliss of sunrise.

The journey continued and as planned. The sun was shining bright. More than Half of the distance was traversed. Destination was a only a few kilometres away. I was happy because I was about to reach the destination an hour earlier than planned. The fact that I am going to reach earlier than planned made me happy.

Suddenly I heard a noise and the bus stopped. There was a breakdown. All the passengers were requested to get down and wait for the next bus. Everyone stood beside  the highway waiting for another bus. The bright sun was not as pleasant as it was before. There was a desperation while waiting for another bus.

Standing under a tree in the edge of the road, looking at the beautiful flowers in the tree, the philosopher in me woke up after a long sleep. The bus broke down but the journey did not end. The bus may be different but the destination remains the same.

Life is also a journey and sometimes the unplanned and unpleasant events hamper the pleasant journey of life towards the destiny. But the destiny should never change. The determination to reach there one or the other day should remain as it is.
Never stop no matters what happens. You may be late but you will reach for sure. Who knows, the unpleasant event might have happened so that more happiness gush in.

Finally, the wait ended and a super luxury bus came there. A more comfortable journey begun from where the previous journey stopped. I reached my destination in a more comfortable way. The journey ended in a happier way.
