this is what i have gained or earned so far...
Gradually they start opening up a book before me. I dont mean any novel, they open pages of their life. They share their happiest, funniest moments. Within few days of sharing they become more comfortable sharing their difficult times;times where they felt being left out, lonely. Some are there who just start off with their emotional pages and say ..."i dont know why i felt like sharing it with you. may be i find a friend in you." This usually happens when i meet a stranger. Well my friends were obviously strangers to me before introduced. It scraes me at times thinking ,if i am just a lending ear, how can i solve their puzzles.
With passing days I beacome a part of their life, I am introdiced to members of their families. I start fighting for their rights. I start fighting for freedom and see to it that they are free birds under the roof. At times even I have felt I am just a pillar for them. They come, stand besides me, scold or share whatever comes to their mind, they cry out their heart, thinking they have shaken me and solved ther jigsaws.
& Thus, this is how I mingle and joggle and then finally earn a smile on their face ...
To explain how this chart works with my life, I have used Electrolysis as a metaphor to Life. Elctrolysis means the passing of electric current through an electrolyte or the destruction of the root by an electric current. If i speak of life in such language i behave as the electrolyte ,the medium in which the flow of current (the way i introduce the do's n don'ts)is accompanied by the movement of matter(how well i make the members understand). Which means the diffusion media is mingling with the friend and the family.Membrane is the issue raised or the task i have taken .My ability to stand as a support for the needy is the catalyst. Thus, I am the electrolyte for their lives. :) head is runng faster i believe ..
Well when I wish a good night to thyself, I feel satisfied and believe a job well done when they sleep well..
Amen !!!
