one the eve of Diwali, i went to the market to buy some candles and flowers for the evening decoration of the home....i bought them and was on my way home...... i was watching many people buying firewords from the stalls set up on the road side when suddenly i got to a see a little girl(aged around 3yrs.) catching her mom's hand and walking in the opposite direction to me.....when i saw her she was smiling seeing me and i dont know why but i felt that she was very happy....i smiled back and moved on.
after a second or two, i felt some one puling my dupatta and so stopped and looked back....to my surpise...it was the same girl...i asked her why she was caling me.....
me: what happen dear???
girl: u bend once i want to tell u something......
i did just as the girl asked me to..... then she took my hand
girl: akka(sister), wish u HAPPY DIWLAI akka.......
(and then she kissed me gently on my cheek.....)
me: thanq dear and wish u the same ( i kissed her back and gave her a nice red rose that i already had..... she was very happy)
girl:(went to her mom)....mamma!! sister gave me a rose......she is a good sister na....(she waved me back 0 and said i like ur gift and will not give it to anyone.....
** this is my gift. a nice diwali wish from a beautiful little girl whom i never knew nor seen..... on that busy road in our busy life we forget to wish someone we know for years...... i will remember this gift all my life.....
