It was the month of April and the
temperature in this middle east country would be not less than 42 Deg. Celsius
during the daytime. Average annual rainfall is 0.9 CM. I am living here for
last 5 years and finally saw the drizzling 15 months ago. Sandstorm sometimes
comes and visibility reduced to 0. The is the climatic conditions of this
place.
I am living in the roadside
without anyone take care of me. Also, nothing or no one is there to protect me.
Living is exceedingly difficult in this place. Getting the essentials for
living is extremely difficult. When existence itself becomes a war, laughing is
not easy. Yes, when staying in nice places, in wealthy houses, at protected
environment, under someone’s care, we can enjoy the life and laugh. But laying
in the roadside would not bring more joy to anyone.
Yet, I am laughing. Not enough to
eat or drink, still I am laughing. I am staying in adverse life and weather
conditions though I choose to laugh. I do not know how long my laugh would last,
yet I am laughing. How could it become possible to laugh amidst this all
troubles and rubbles? Because this is what I am. If I lose my character, I lose
my identity. Surely, you may wonder, how anyone live like this? If you want, I
can share the secret with you.
Are you seeing the above photo? Some
white flowers laughing joyfully. You may not see it as wonder because we can
see flowers all around of us. This photo is deceiving you and now see the photo
below. This small plant with lots of flowers is in the roadside where there is
no water.
Despite of all the adverse conditions,
it flowered in its time, not waiting for very conducive condition to bloom
rather it bears the lovely smile. How it is possible? Because it’s creator does
things which are beyond the nature. HE can sustain life where it is impossible
to exist.
The flower really taught me a
lesson – His wonderous works are in display all around us and only we need to
have the desire to see it.
