I was panting. I haven’t had any food for a day. Nature’s fury was evident on all sides. Sun was beating hard taking a heavy toll on me. My legs were numb reaching for the eagle’s shadow. I crawled till I knew nothing. Silence prevailed.
In a distant dream, I heard some poised beats. I didn’t care as I couldn’t. Something told me I was alive and I believed it. Who said only phoenix can win death? I can add one more page in my life book.
The drum beats were very apparent now. It made my heart beat faster. My vision was blurred. Somebody asked me “aeyu kaya hoyss?”. I couldn’t understand a thing, but I nodded. In a minute, a bowl of soup was served to me. Perhaps, this bowl can change my life forever!
In a jiffy, I gulped down the soup. I could feel the warmth back in my stomach after an era of starvation. Tears rolled down my cheeks with a sense of accomplishment. Yes, I survived and thats a accomplishment. Down the line, a little boy was watching me bewildered. Gaining strength, I asked him who he was. He said, “I am a human being”. I felt like I was struck with a rod. He asked my name. I smiled and told him, “I am humanity”.
Yes, only humans can save humanity. A mere act of kindness can save humans and humanity together. Nobody can deny the fact that they need to be loved and cared and humanity lives at that point. Love is beyond language, colour, race or any such frontiers. Love makes a life worth living. Take care. Spread love.
