Okay, nothing special here. But still ought to be written.
I went for a ride till vattiyurkavu in the morning on my scooter. I stopped somewhere to ask for directions and there was this old lady standing nearby and she was going to the same place as well. She courageously agreed to climb on the back of my scooter and together we rode. It might not be anything great, but I felt good that I offered her the lift and that she accepted it.
She reminded me a great deal of my place, a sorta secluded village in Pandalam, of my great grandmother who passed away three years back and well, a lot of things that I like to remember. Simple pleasures perhaps.
And when I dropped her at the place, she said
"Valare upakaram mone. Monu nallathu varum."
And all I could do was smile...a big hearty smile. I was hearing something of that sort after ages, ages !! And it's good to know that you've done something good, something that you know for sure is good. 'Coz seriously most things I do, I remain confused if it was right or wrong on my part to do it. Feels good :-)
