Real Things.. Really...

There is a conflict of understanding always. Realizing self and Others realizing us. Both are different. It is obvious that others won't really realize us in our true self. We can substitute the word understanding for the word realization.

I have seen and heard of many co-workers talking about traveling in flights for a tour, ordering a tour package abroad or for photography or for dating etc., Many I have seen traveling to their natives even by flights or other luxurious means. An AC Coach, First Class in Train etc., Convenience and Comfortability, they called it. We often talk about them and use to eye at them since we feel that is a boon given only to them.

Scene No. 1.

I am from a low middle class family, when I started my life, my father used to give me 500 INR for the whole month for expense. When I started earning it was 1750 INR. To travel to my native I had various options those days. Train and Bus. No flights to my native. Train i felt so costly. The cost is 179 INR. Again I have to catch up a bus to reach my native. I have to spend 50 INR more. Express bus service was too costly again. 106 INR it costed to reach my native. I used to get help of ordinary bus service which will cost me about 68 INR. I normally avoided going to my native often, though I wished I have to see my Parents and Grandfather.

Scene No. 2

I started earning a little bit more. I have to travel to my wife's place. Only train was the option. Even Flight was there to reach, I can't even think of it. In train to reach my wife's place it is 240 INR, that is for sleeper class. I used to think of two situations; I have to survive with my earnings and I have to take care of my wife and family. I avoided travelling in sleeper class and traveled only in second sitting which costed me 135 INR. What I thought was a mere 100 bucks saving will help me for food for next three days at least.

Scene No. 3

My earnings increased little bit more. Everybody accused me of not travelling comfortably. So I started travelling in Sleeper Class of Train. This time though my earnings supported the cost of flight charges. I wanted to save that money to make my family life more comfortable. I wanted to use that extra cost for serving a poor child's education by donating to a concerning NGO.

I remember the times I wanted to save money only for survival to achieve my dreams and to take care of my family. I made myself happy and comfortable in each and every moment with what I have. To secure my life and my family. I never forgot my days of suffering for money. I realized my self. The actual situation of my family and my part in that.

Current Scene:

A situation arouse for me to sell all what I had saved, a year back to compensate the losses incurred by the people who believed in me and invested for my company. Now in a situation in which I can't even walk much and go for earning outside, when many people like my co-workers, my juniors still hang around in coffee-day bars for a 90 bucks coffee; party pubs for 5000 bucks dating and dance; and still yells even they had sufferings in life...

When luxury for pleasure is needed for happiness of human beings, we often hide ourselves with masks. In this world of False Masked Faces, Do I have to really think this world will understand Real Things..Really?
