“When sight grows weak”
As I write this experience for you to enjoy my mistake,I humbly accept that eyes are the most important tool of human body together with brain.Had our eyes not been assistingus constantly and perpetually we would not live our life to our contentment! life could be a mess! Living,a vegetative state!
I am on my journey from Northern part of my land to its southern end ,these days.To fulfill one of my personal responsibilities, I took a break at kolkatta.Lodging in a hotel,my first interest was to get ready and proceed to wards my place of concern. Generally,a few of toiletry requisites are provided by the hotel. As I didn’t get it in the provision basket of the wash room,I fumbled with my fingers in my toilet pouch and felt greatly relieved ,to find a small pouch of the same. To overcome all delay,and save time without waisting further moments,I rushed to the washroom, my face glowing with smile, crediting myself for my foresight ,in carrying the economy shampoo sachet,in my toilet pouch!I put on the shower and tear opening the “so presumed shampoo sachet”,I tried tu get the whole content out on my left palm to be applied on my scalp! Hurriedly ,I rubbed the content between both the palms,with all praise for myself and gleefully applied it,over my scalp ,from front to back and from left ear to the right……….! Suddenly, I felt the feel was not the smooth and slippery as alike the consistency of shampoo! Irubbed it more ,presuming it to have thickened due to the its long “not used” state….But no! there was no froth ! no soapy bubbles ! no feel of the shampoo doing its work! Actually Ihad used the oil sachet thinking it to be a shampoo sachet! Tjere was no time…no way of rectifying my mistake….What was fonr was done!
It was a Wednesday and next day would be Thursday,when I donot take headbath…!I got irritated .My hair was short and the greasy oil would definitely spoil my appearance but there was no way out!
At last,I surendered to the day’s destiny!My enthusiasm was shattered! There was no way out! except accepting the day’s wish!
Why did it so happen? Just because I had not put on my spectacles! My weak eye sight had tricked me but taught me a lesson for ever!
