Long ago, I read these lines in a bus stand, which made me reflect. These lines were written on a special board right above the driver's windshield.
I was reading and thinking, what a wonderful truth someone has put in writing!! Who inscribed it? A driver, conductor or ticket checker? I question myself. My mind answers promptly, “this thought must be of an ordinary painter earning his livelihood on bus stand, who inscribes on the vehicle number plates.
Suddenly I change my mind, “Mostly, these Bus drivers and conductors happen to be extremely intelligent. They usually express abstract and vital affairs of life in a very casual and subtle way!
Be it as it may!! There lies a profound meaning behind the lines I just went through. It can only be felt.
No one can even ask the "gone one" where did they go; And no one would ever tell where they are heading to.
One of Dilshad Akhtar's songs is: “Oh dear crow, You didn’t even let me know while leaving; how would I even contact you, dear!!
Whenever I listen to this wonderful song, my heart fills with pain. My heart fills with identical emotions as I go through all these verses inscribed in the bus
God bless you !!
