Dreams Unlimited

Today on way back from Hauzkash to Karolbagh at 11pm through Delhi Metro for few minutes I got lost in the world of dreams. It was among the last series of metro running on the track before it stops for the day. 

Train was originated from Hudda City centre in Gurgaon, a recently developed economic centre of NCR and was destined for Jahangirpuri, surrounding which working class people stay owing to relatively cheap residential area.

So clearly most of the people were office goers or daily wage earners, some may be working in MNCs and others may be working in medium and small scale industries. All most everyone was exhausted to degree that a salient war was on to grab a seat. Though there was enough crowd but it was like pin drop silence.

My civil services result would most probably be declared this week, so I was lost thinking about that. As usual I was praying to God suddenly I felt that why am I feeling so helpless, why I am so possessive about UPSC results, why am I not happy with whatever I have. It's good to dream bigger but that doesn't mean........

I tried to look into the eyes of people surrounding me..I could see the dreams floating all around in the compartment. Some of them are newly germinated, others are still in incubation phase, some others have been broken and some are on the verge of yielding fruit. Though the nature of dreams are different but the quest to get them are perhaps equally stronger in everyone. A little kid was happy perhaps thinking that on reaching home he will get to eat the Cadbury chocolate kept in the pocket of his father. His father may be happy dreaming about things he would buy from the salary he has received today. Some people would be happy thinking about their favourite food which they will have today. Some most be expecting a pat on back from their boss for the good work they have done. Some would have been thinking about the increment which is due. 

There were some others who were looking too tired may be disgusted thinking about the scolding, their boss gave them today, others thinking about the approaching deadline, others may be thinking about some personal problem..

I concluded it was not me only who was lost in the dream..perhaps dreams are the fuel for excellence. Everyone is surrounded by never ending chain of dreams, the minute one is lost or achieved other starts. So keep dreaming my friend !
