The Bus Accident

It was a foggy morning today.
I feel that I have a strong intuitive power but still I hardly go along with it. Again ignoring the same, I took the bus.

I started at 6 A.M. from Jaipur for Gurgaon. But the smog was so dense that bus hardly covered one third distance in half of the time taken normally. Suddenly, bus collided somewhere with loud noise. It was all messy around. I fell down from my seat with minor injuries but there were many who were badly hurt.

We all came out and boarded another one. Thanks to state roadways cooperative staff. Finally, I reached the destination safely, but in double the time than usual.
It was the first time ever I experienced such accident. Reading, listening and watching news is different, but once you are there, only then you can feel the actual.

In college, there was a professor who used to teach life lessons along with mechanical internal combustion engines. That was the first time I heard from someone that its the toughest time to save yourself and your values. When you have belongings all around you with no one to claim, it become difficult to have control on self. I fell down, my hand purse was not with me. When I got down, somebody bought it and asked if it was mine. I was really grateful.

I thank God that humanity is still there and will be there no matter how much we progress in other areas.
