Happiness is ‘experiencing relief after
many days of pain’.
My lane has been under construction since last three
months. They repaired the water pipes, made new footpaths on either side of
road and tarred the road. It is very unsafe to walk, even for abled person.
Besides dust and stones, the road is uneven. Everyday, neighbors complained of
injuries, some of foot sprains and some of knee pain. I was careful and avoided
going out but then, how long can one be confined at home?
Work has to be done, life cannot come to standstill, and
one must venture out. I dared. And so, I fell too on my knees on a slippery
footpath. The pain was intense. Homebound, I have suffered for 20 days.
Pain is the cross one must carry alone. We can share
happiness, our moments of joy but pain has no company. Visitors came to cheer
me up but they could never reduce my pain. I spend many sleepless nights
fighting with pain.
Our body has an amazing power of healing itself. All we
need is to take proper rest and let it heal.
Today, after more than 20 days, I have experience a
relief. It feels good to be painless again…..
So here I am, with the project of ‘100 Happy Days’I
am posting pictures each day here on my blog then sharing the link on my page
on FB too. You can enjoy my work either here or on my page at FB at Pushee’s World
