The train has started moving. It is packed with people of all ages, mostly with the working men and women and young college guys and gals. Near the window, seated an old man with his 30 year old son. As the train moves by, the son is overwhelmed with joy as he was thrilled with the scenery outside..
 
     "See dad, the scenery of green trees moving away is very beautiful"
 
This behavior from a thirty year old son made the other people feel strange about him. Every one started murmuring something or other about this son."This guy seems to be a krack.." newly married Anup whispered to his wife.
 
      Suddenly it started raining... Rain drops fell on the travellers through the opened window. The Thirty year old son, filled with joy "see dad, how beautiful the rain is .."
 
     Anup's wife got irritated with the rain drops spoiling her new suit.
 
     Anup ," cant you see its raining, you old man, if your son is not feeling well get him soon to a mental asylum..and don’t disturb public henceforth"    
                 
 
The old man hesitated first and then in a low tone replied " we are on the way back from hospital, my son got discharged today morning , he was a blind by birth, last week only he got his vision,  these rain and nature are new to his eyes.. Please forgive us for the inconvenience caused..."
 
 
The things we see may be right from our perspective until we know the truth. But when we know the truth our reaction to that will hurt even us. So try to understand the problem better before taking a harsh action.

Dear Mr.Manoj

A very good piece of article. We all would have fallen prey to this jumping before giving any thinking before acting. And ofcourse we could have also taken a pledge that we will never repeat this mistake. But how many of us are succesful in that resolution ?

Simply excellent. How the perception changes. It is always better to comment after knowing the facts. Except it doesnt apply to COMMON WEALTH GAMES.

Good one Manoj,

It is said by Albert Einstein -"Small is the number of people who see with their eyes and think with their minds." While reading your post, I remember my college days when I was arguing with my friends in favour of my TEACHER (as my teacher was under some controversy) and one of my senior sister said that " Character is like a tree and reputation like a shadow. The shadow is what we think of it; the tree is the real thing. 
Later on, I came to know that this was said by Abraham Lincoln. 
A really GOOD POST Manoj. Most of the time we judge by the incidence...

a really good article...short but having a big message for all of us....we knowingly and un knowingly hurt many by our words and acts.....thanks for the referral
Wow Manoj, Thanks for such an nice article, which is life changing, really how sad as most of the people assume situation as per their perspective and come to conclusion, without thinking any thing of possibility beyond their limited thoughts.
