After having lunch I and my friend went for our daily afternoon walk.The weather was cloudy and breezy.We were seeing the people sitting beside the lake,some lost in their thoughts,some gazing at the sky,some smoking to get relief from the mundane life.
While waking we saw a very cute puppy on the road running here and there with zeal.
We were talking,looking here and there and while returning back we see the puppy which
was jumping with life was lying dead,a vehicle had run over it.

I was stuck with a lump in my throat. A being which was full of life before few minutes is now lying dead.No one will mourn over it,people will see the body feel sorry and go back to their work desks,forget about the world and immerse themselves in the daily routine of slogging themselves to make a code work.

How we humans manage to be like that?How do we forget to live the small moments of our life?We are always chasing things,how do we don't get time to pause?How do we forget to laugh,cry and live every moment of our lives?How do we start behaving like robots?Life is short and we worry too much over every small thing.Death is inevitable and can strike us at the most unpredictable moments.We postpone,delay,procrastinate things saying there is a tomorrow.But how do you know that tomorrow will come.We worry too much about our past and plan too much for the future that we forget to live our present.We are never satisfied. Even when the future we have imagined becomes the present we again start off this vicious circle of being unhappy with what we have and start off planning to think about the future.
Is their an end to our desires?Why are we the way we are?
