"BUS"Y RIDE

It feels like eons since i have blogged!!! The reason being that we finally shifted to our new house...and its feels so good...
Well had many new experiences specially going through a 50 minute bus ride to my UHC which is 20 km away from my place...a mode of transport probably used by 70% of the population...And was it good??? Well if i managed to get a seat through the ride it was definitely better...
While the journey all these days i pondered over things...There are many people who travel through the bus and wait in the scorching heat but they do not complain..and i cant even get count of the times when i had to wait for a few minutes whenever dad used to come and pick me up and would have been late...i would take out all the frustration on him..!!!and now i realise if it wouldnt have been for him saving a penny here and there by travelling through bus;i wouldnt have had the privelege of roaming around in a car..!!!
Well now atleast i shall whine a little less...
Also there are still some youngsters who stand up when they see an elderly person..and still more; selfless people who point out an empty seat to anyone who is standing..i mean these incidents make you think that the world is not that ruthless as it is potrayed.. nad perhaps if u do see that the glass is half full(as per the old chinese saying) it really works good..

Lots of things can be introspected..And as much as i hated waiting in the heat for the bus i loved to have such a beautiful experience...
So until i use another mode of public transport and gain some new "gyaan" i'll be content with this self realisation...
