There are those days, when you feel absolutely disgusted by all the right and wrong things going around you, and you crave for an escape from eveything, just searching for some solitude..gripped by the annui of a routine life, stagnant relations, pressing deadlines, and the burden of your aimless ambitions..and one such evening, I was just strolling the road to the historical south Indian temple in the vicinity, thinking all that I needed to tell dear "Rab ji"...and as if HE knew it all, something happened on the way, that just made me feel lighter by tonnes.There was this bunch of kids by the roadside(yep, the same ones in tattered clothes, which lot of us loath, and detest touching), watching me curiously, as if I was an extra-terrestrial who just landed into their country. I tried to avoid this constant attention I was getting for a while, but then something from inside told me to pass on a smile(and trust me, it was a genuine one)to them..And believe it or not, the kids were so over-joyed as if I made their day..one smile from me..and I got so many in return..they followed me for some distance, waving and laughing merrily all the way..and I couldn't stop myself from joining them, leaving all cares in world beyond, and just living that blissful moment.
I did not go to the temple then..HE was there in the smiles of those kids.

A perfect experience to remind us that happiness lies in simple joys of life.And the best thing is to see someone cheer because of us..Just a simple smile at every place makes our life simply wonderful.Great post yaar:-)
Can't agree more Vijji.
So keep smiling-it might make someone's day:)
Hey Nishu...its really true...we are really blessed...n made me realize this once again..
A song that exactly relates with your experience...
Ghar se masjid hai bahut door, Chalo yun kar len
Kisi rote hue bachche ko hansaya jaae
