It was raining in the morning as I was getting ready to go to work. As I stepped out of the compound wall, besides I noticed a Cat sleeping. As I was getting late in a hurry I didn’t give much notice and moved on. In the evening this incident was out of my mind. A day later in the evening, my kid showed me the sleeping cat, visible by peeping from the window. I could only analyze, it is strange that Cat getting wet in the rain and something wrong. My wife said the cat is dead and it is lying there from few days.
Oh! God, the Cat has completed the journey of this world and it has entered eternity ! The sound of the cat and worry of mice’s to bell it was no more....
Although we could peep and observe, that means the people who stay nearby might have seen it, but not bothered about it. Since it is a week, that means that there is bad stint coming out of the decomposing body. May be the Ants and flies were the only mourners for the poor little cat ! This reflected me the instance where in my friends dog died, he did it was sharing the emotional boding with the pet and his actions to createmate through electric cremation.
Thought the week, a series of thoughts would hit my mind, some thoughts I could recollect others just made the reflections for the moment. Some points I could recollect are; There are several people who are left alone in this world, when their journey of life ends, whose there to show empathy ? Many of us, migrate because of work and elder parents are left alone, what when the end comes ? In India, we have the beggars, drug peddlers, left alone, abnormal people who are left alone on the streets, what about them ? Few are left alone in the hospitals,
Bottom-line
One of my friend, while we were discussing these issues, made up his mind and made a will to donate his body after his death to Medical College. Some are lucky, during their end they are treated in the distute centres, giving them good care. Whatever the fame or rich we are in this life, whatever may be the status, when we die – we lose our identity. People while doing undertaking refer us as lower the body to the grave or phire the body..... Is life really worth ?
We are born without Identity and we die without Identity...........
