Yesterday, at temple, I saw a rare sight.
A boy, probably somewhere in 10th or 12th class, was sitting in front of shivji's idol, with a open book, and mugging away furiously in a very dimly lit area. Jumping from one chapter to another. Frantically trying to grasp (or revise, I dont know) a few concept here and there. Glancing at the idol every few minutes. Glancing at his surroundings every other few minutes. Turning back to the book immediately.

Reminded me of many things. It reminded me of a famous incident, where a famous person (dunno who, Lala lajpat rai?) studied in streetlight, because he didn't have money to buy kerosene oil to light a lamp. It reminded of my solid mechanics course - in my 1st year, I was standing at the temple (A104). It reminded me of the way I was staring at Hg, who helped me pass that exam and turned out to be my idol.
It reminded me that life, however complex it may get, will still have a way to make you forget everything and smile for atleast that one moment.
