Lessons I learnt - II - Why say, “ Isn’t there someone who is concerned?” Why aren’t you???

Why say, “ Isn’t there someone who is concerned?; Why aren’t you???




The Title, always takes me to an incident that I witnessed during my trip back with my husband and baby from my Native place.




It was a pleasant day and we had stopped for breakfast in one of those roadside hotels. We were enjoying the trip as my parents along with my brother had joined us for the trip. As we entered the hotel, there was this dark lean guy who pushed through people entering the hotel. I turned around to give him a dirty stare as he pushed me as well. I was shocked to see his Blood-stained face. His shirt was red with blood.




What am I to do??
People in the hotel were tensed at this sight… There were 2 men in a bike who had followed him. They were armed with wooden rods. I wondered if this was some kind of a movie shooting … I had never come across such an incident in my life.




As was expected, they were beating him and not one soul who bothered on this. They rather pushed this poor guy out of the hotel..Probably those guys were some known gundas in the locality.

My brother and husband were furious at the sight.


Though the thought wandered as to y no-one is upto the rescue of the guy, I was also worried if my husband or brother would involve to stop them.

See, Now thats what most of us would do.right??? Hmmm.

I was quite ashamed at myself thinking about this.. But then realised that If You are to do good to the soceity, you better be alone.. else you might hurt your loves ones too...

Hat's off to all those Heros!!!!
