Be alert
Be vigilant
Be thankful
And be wise
Happiness is there
Before your eyes
'Tis
The daintiest dance
The merest glimmer
A chink of light
A lustrous shimmer
A soulful note
The faintest cry
A song of love
A sweet reply
A tug on heartstrings
The utmost longing
A sigh of relief
A sense of belonging
The tiniest moment
The sweetest thought
A smile in your heart
Tis happiness caught! Pauline Oliver
A question for our reader.
What is that thing which brings a smile to your face when you are upset?
For me its my bhateejee’s voice or smile or hug or just her being around.
There are many. Like driving without pulling down handbreaks.
When I was internee, one of the managers called me in his room and asked if I can punch papaers properly. I thought ’ punch hi to karna hai’ so said yes. He again asked ‘can you do it properly in center’. I thought ‘bacha samajh rakha hai’ and said ‘sure’. He handed me his Punching machine and give me some papers to punch. I punch the papers as I thought right. Suddenly he started shouting. ‘hey man! What have you done. You don’t know how to punch papers in centre’. Hearing all his shouts, the punching machine droped from my hand and hit his feet
Then he told me how to mark centre of the paper to punch it properly.
