8:20 AM on the busy Western Express highway near Kandivli
Sitting in the company’s bus, I look outside at the slow moving traffic. The morning sun can be quite hot. As I look, a family of four sits in a taxi, the elder son in the front seat and the husband and wife with their infant son in the back seat. The infant who may be just a year or so old stands/sits between the two parents looking from the rear window at the world outside.
Behind the taxi, a lone driver sits in his car. From his clothes, he looks to be in a well-to-do job, complete with tie and jazzy identity card hanging around his neck, As I look at the kid completely comforatble standing and looking around, the man behind starts waving at the kid. First quite discreetly and then quite happily.
The kid looks on at the man and seems confused at first. The traffic has stopped and the man is still waving. The kid is still looking. Both of them seem oblivious of the surrounding. The man keeps waving and finally the infant smiles. He looks sideways to see a biker and he smiles at him too. He is quite in a mood smiling at everybody around him
I smile too!
===============================
As soon as the month of May ends, Mumbaikar wait eagerly for the monsoon. As I sit in the bus, I see dark clouds in the sky. The traffic had really slowed down and a bus comes and stands close to our bus. The heat is becoming unbearable, coupled with humidity, I am sweating drenched when I reach office.
I feel some drops of water on my hand. I look out. The sky is overcast but I feel small drops on my hand. I look out but the sun still shines brightly between the clouds but still there are some tiny water droplets on my arm. I stretch out my hand from the stationary bus
The people in the opposite bus also did feel the waterdrops. One hand comes out of the window from the opposite bus, then another, then another and then another. I see 5 hands out of the bus trying to touch the first drops of rain this year. All in the hope of the much needed rains. All spontaneous.
I look on as the drops stop!
I smile again!

As I read this post, I smile too
Nice Posts …
One request …. just increase the size of the fonts.
Ciao
Baarish ko maar goli, like Tarun said.. pehlaa Font size increase kar. I read your previous Job Story episode.. by copying the text and pasting it in Notepad… only after that the font became readable..
As for rains.. in Sg, it rains 365 days of year.. and I am not even exaggerating. And yet, it never fails to gladden my heart no matter how boringly regular the rain gods come down in this parts of the world. I absolutely love the alternatively (or rather constantly) hot and wet weather in Sg.
I tried to make the fonts bigger but all alternative have made it worse
Anybody knows how to make fonts normal without going into HTML tags in wordpress. I would be spending a lot more time doing HTML codes than writing if i check every post like this and still no success.
As for now go to view –> text size and increase the font to view the post properly. Tab tak main kuch jugad karta hoo
