The end of Life!

No body I know believes in the End of Life. This may be so with many others too. But the truth is many in the world think the end of Life will be as per the Bible. Seventy or seventy five. If the advance of medicine is addef eighty to eighty five. Hospitals and docs know it pretty well.

I was visiting my dear in Lissy Hospital, Katcherpady, Ernakulam. My dear friend breathing heavily beyond any body's capacity to take it. After a hectic life breath and breathe hard for dear life. One can only pray to God to give life!

Going to the Dispensary in Thiruvanmiyur and back.

The morning time was wearing off at the village when I moved to the Bus stop for a ride to the Dispensary side. The reason being if I am early, the rush of students will be there. Among the two buses I missed, one was narrowly missed as I was two seconds late to look back.
Within minutes the next bus came.

It was a lucky day for me, as it was an ordinary bus! An ordinary bus have the lowest ticket price even though it also gives the least amenities. But then  in their  goodness they too reach us to our destination.  The conductor, a sticky young man collected fifteen Rupees and earnestly gave me a computer produced ticket. This was my ticket from Kazhipattur to Jayanti talkies. Jayanti was an old 'talkies'!  The initial standing was starting to wear me when a person three seats back from where I was standing rose up to get down and another sank into that seat. There's nothing more disconcerting than to lose a seat in front of your eyes when the bus tosses you from side to side! This repeated a couple of times and in the last time two seats fell vacant in the last back seat. That was my chance! I instentaneously reached for it and sat on as if I owned it from far back. Here after it was my turn to see those entering and getting down, various sights on the road and the general behaviour of my fellow travelers!
There were a few small and long red lights on way which delayed the bus for quite a while!  Altogether, the bus left me at Jayanti after an hour and ten minutes. Not a bad proposition at that !
