Stranger or Messanger

Few weeks ago.. i got a chance to meet  a very inspiring and optimistic lady....How i met her, and how she inspired me is whole together diffrent story...

I had lost my purse on my way to mumbai and i totally gave up on it, thinking who would possibly return the purse which was loaded with money, atm card??.. Just like anybody who would have reacted , i called the customer care and blocked the card, but lady luck was shining on me brightly as she always does, next morning i got a call from ATS chief and i got my purse back... This story is not that important , as important for me to share that the journey to get my purse back would actually turn out to be the best journey i have undertaken till date...
I was on my way back home after taking the purse, that i met this lady on train. I had poured myself wholly inside the newspaper, when i heard her tell me.."Child , why are you pouring yourself inside the newspaper, you would get spectacles"... she was obviously oblivious to the fact that i was wearing contact lens, i told her this with a sheepish smile, and thus the conversation continued... she had the ability to put anybody at ease...and  with such ease, you risk the chance of pouring your heart out...i did just that.. she listened patiently to my story ( what i told her , i will tell later, but what she advised me is worth thinking)... she said in a calm and mature tone.." Child you know, there are many people, who face many adversities, you can not avoid adversity, and sometimes adversities bring you out from your own selfish confines and you wake up.. you see the world with diffrent light.. You are lucky that your adversity is over, and you got a chance to begin anew.. not many get this.. what you got to do now is "Be awake and make a diffrence... this is one lifetime.. achieve your goals and be of some use to people who dont get a chance"... This quote is ringing in my ears till today, and i am definetly working on what she said...
Who was she to me??.. How she met me on that train??.. and why only me she met??... are the questions only the lady luck can answer.. and I intent on working on that advice she gave me.


Strangers they say are danger
But i bed to differ
My stranger 
turned out to be God's Messenger
taught me a valuable thing
Which i had forgotten for sure..
She put me on a mission
That is worth pursuing 
I am thankful i met her
She was a stranger
but she turned out to be my messanger
I will never forget that journey on train
And i will make sure that message wont go in vain...
