Fiction Inspirational Teens & Young Adult

Walking down the railway station amidst the hustle bustle of the festive season was a tedious and terrific task. Being blogged by people , pulled ,pushed and squished in different angles was how i entered in to my train. Seeing the scenerio of the train a sigh escaped my lips. It was no less than a crowded street at times of festivities where you don't even have space to place your foot on the ground. Being pulled and squished again . I muttered few incoherent curses under my breath . I walked over to the exit again to get out but seems like luck wasn't at my side today. The train started moving leaving me agitated. I looked animatedly around to find children loitering in the train corridors , people throwing scraps of what they ate. Some men fighting for some random reasons and women yelling at no one in particular. The scenerio was terrific for me to handle as i turned around towards the exit of the train. Gazing outside the background voices became blurred as i took in the mesmerizing nature in front of me. I was drowned in those huge green alleys and those colourful flowers painting the green canvas of nature with the setting sun increasing its beauty manifolds. The amalgamation of those diverse colours together was making it the perfect view to heal yourself and fall into the depths of nature finding your true worth. That specs of orange colour sprawled accross the semi-dark and semi-blue sky did made him feel the different hidden and embedded emotions being pulled out from the carves of his heart. He was never so fascinated about nature but today something changed in him. Nature heals in real .A squeal from a child brought him out of his daze which nature did spell on him. He was back to that choatic life from the peaceful solace he did saw just a few moments ago. Turning around he reached out to the group of people yelling at nothing in particular.

"What's the problem here" he asked in his steely voice grasping thier attention .

"They are sitting at my seat"

"He's trying to eat my stuff"

"These kids are irritating"

"This man has no respect for women"

"These kids are lacking in all kinds of mannerisms"

"What will you so solve everyone's individual problems. Nice way to end the journey . Isn't it??"

Many random complaints were thrown at him which made him startled a bit. Were they actually so concerned about someone else's children? Were they actually angry from someone eating thier food or was it just their frustations of the day which was making these people get irked at anything and everything. It was just that they wanted to yell loud enough to vent out all thier problems in a go and soothe thier minds. Everyone is similar in the fact that they behave irrationally in problems and pressure. May be i was just frustrated with my day and not the chaos of the train because no one present in this train is at fault of being with me on it. Are they?? Not really .Composing himself he looked back at all of them with a compassionate smile while the other's looked at him anticipating the reason for his smile.

"You know all these things can wait. Your problems can wait but the beautiful scenic beauty crafted especially by nature for you can't. It will evade away with time. You can soothe your heart seeing that site or you can burn in rage for petty things leaving the real treasure. Its upto you" he said with some new born passion to dive into nature making the other's curious to know what made this man so captivated in its beauty. The man who was a lot more dressed than usual travelling in the train. He was wearing a black tuxedo perfectly fitting to his curves. He had a real different aura that bespoke authority and he caught everyone's eye as soon as he entered the train . People saw his disdain towards the chaos of the train evidently on his face. When he spoke something with that cold voice and his dominating aura ,silence prevailed in the entire coach . Men looked at him with contempt while women looked at him dreamily. Yet there was no change in the man's demeanor. He listened to thier complaints calmly. People expected him to tell them how bad they were and how chaotic was thier lifestyle. People expected him to demean them because he was rich and they weren't. They expected him to ridicule them on thier petty complaints yet they saw that man standing thier with a compassionate smile leaving them flabbergasted and perplexed with the man's behaviour. His answer took them off gaurd yet it was enough for them to get curious to know about the beauty he was talking about.The ladies who were yelling sometime back were admiring the nature dreamily . The kids who were running without any direction now got several questions to ask. The men who were fighting for nothing now had something to admire and leave thier dad-to-day problems to

"Why is it so beautiful"

"Why the sky is orange "

"Why is it green and dark yet it has so many colours"

"Is this for real"

"This gives me goosebumps"

"Its so enchanting"

"I have never seen such a thing in my entire life"

These were the questions thrown at the elders who replied calmly to the kids. They all were dazed with the beauty nature beholds in itself . The chaotic environment turned into a peaceful one. The burning hearts were soothed. The people who were hating thier lives were filled with enthusiasm to dive into nature more. Nature instilled the peace in them. It instilled the freshness which was tarnished during the day back into them intact. It made the people feel at ease . Nature interjected a new found strength and peace in thier hearts. We are the essence of nature and it can only heal humans. All the problems were halted because everyone was captivated by the nature which heals.
