carry on baggage

I experienced some early morning chaos of Eid on my way to airport. It was a mixed experience as could have been due to various age groups and difference in financial stability of the families around. I felt bad seeing long lines of under privileged who sat at the road and where seeking mercy of the privileged ones. Though not all of them were helpless. They had a choice to work from where I could see them. When my cab moved little ahead I saw few excited young ladies carrying the items to be put at road side shop. These happy ladies were followed by few calm ones few odd tensed ones and few May be very confident ones, I say so because these ladies didn't support the bundle on their head with their arms, they rather let it be and kept their arms free or held hand of children. Inspiration for today blog came from this incident. Each one of us have our own baggage to carry which May or May not be similar to people around. Our attitude towards life is defined with the way we carry these baggage and the image that we show to people. They are people who are always seen smiling and spreading happiness irrespective of their own baggage, while others are also seen self pitying or expressing their discomfort to world. I am no one to give a judgement on any persons behavior but am just trying to explain the perceptions that are carried about us on basis of our behaviour. What you show to world and how they perceive it is under your control to an extent. Manisha Dawar
