Longevity.............

What does longevity mean? Great duration of life! Where does this stand in the dictionary of the people of Mumbai? Is it the Longevity which is defined as an addition of one new day in their life? A Day! How do you define a day? When you see the Next Day morning Sun , or When you see the fan blades rotating at a high speed above your bed on the ceiling, after a tired day's work trying to get or a better word catch some sleep in the noisy environment. A noisy Environment, everywhere! Physically and Mentally! You lie down for a peaceful sleep and suddenly …. The cries of some one ringing in your ears, some one trying to scream loud to you! Some one asking you to save him! Someone begging for a rupee to feed the hungry child on the lap! Someone shouting at you for some silly thing which was not your mistake! All this, and you find yourself in an Asylum, where people are shouting, and then suddenly you hear a mosquito buzzing in you ears. Snap! There is the dead mosquito lying peacefully in his palms .Suddenly there is a silence surrounding, and he can't speak now and he is asleep waiting for the day to end. Waiting for Tomorrow, hoping that he would be again lying tomorrow, with the dead mosquito in his palm, and not as a dead man in the palm of the world or this city.............
