Innocence ??

A crowded ladies compartment...
A little girl of 6 yrs enters..
Dressed up in a frock with a stole draped like a saree..
Carrying a box stuffed with bindis..
Confidence on her face..
A softness in her voice..
A target of maximum sale for the day..
To get a living of grace..

Watching her makes me think..
Is this not a loss of innocence??
Each day a struggle,to live life on the brink..
Or is this a life of independence??..

  1. koi bhi kaam chota ya bada nahi hota hai...kaam kaam hota hai....

    definition of survival is different for everyone nirzari. At times we think God is unfair and life is not just. Equality should exist, everyone should get a fair treatment and this and that....There will be people who will not bother about anything, will think of these people as worthless and move on...but they don't understand that their work is their morality without which they would die.

    and then there are people like us, who think of such individuals, and try questioning the basics.

    Very nice post...
