Recently, while travelling in the local bus at Udupi , I came across a very beautiful face sitting next to me. As I am dark complexioned and overweight, I started thinking about how lucky she is and how easy it is for her to look good. She was travelling to the same stop as me, I got down earlier than her . When I turned around to notice her once again, I was shocked, She was Limp, she could not walk straight. She had to use her right hand to support her right leg to pull it forward. I keep meeting her often , her smiles makes my day. Its not because of her handicap but because of her strength to fight. She works as a sales woman for some local cloth store, always smiling. I have never seen her self pity herself in so many months. I used to feel jealous by her looks,, I am afraid to even think what are the things she may be jealous of when she looks at me or anyone without the handicap? But this is life we cant get everything, atleast we have something, some people have nothing.
