Sahil

Sahil was a kid, generous by heart, shares happy relations with everyone, kind to everyone, feels pain when someone slaps his friend, and sometime catches the collar of that person trying to drag him and beat him up, though he could not do so firmly, but in an effort to give back to the offense that person did to his friend. But, suddenly one day he wakes up and finds that his friend, the same friend whose life was more important than his own, for him he tried to beat an unknown person though he was never capable of that, has walked out of his life arguing "life is a game, people come, people go, deal with it."



The pain coming out after the realization of the fragileness of that relation which was so important for long time , the shock of it made Sahil, rethink to fathom out the mystery : "whether he is too generous or the world is too bad" ?



Is it possible for everyone to have no attitude, an attitude free world, not in ideal sense but in broad sense, where most of the people are attitude free, just a world that will be born if the people with attitude becomes attitude free and the vice versa? Is it possible for the world to be good, again not in ideal sense but in broad way, if bad people of today's world become good ones and vice versa ? The only practical answer is "NO", the same Sahil concluded from the people around him. But the next questions that follows are: Is it possible to reach the pinnacle without having an attitude or without being selfish? Is being selfless from his side is equivalent to harming himself and being the selfish person is necessary in this world?



Does Sahil need to adopt an attitude because everyone around him lives with one? Does he also need to change his side of the relations from selfless to "give-n-take-n-over" ? Or throught out his survival to the pinnacle, he can keep his simple intrinsic values alive with the selfless part of his character?


Nothing will be more disheartening if Sahil needs to alter himself, suppressing his real values and pretending to be someone else, which he never liked to be ?

Sahil was a kid, generous by heart, shares happy relations with everyone, kind to everyone, feels pain when someone slaps his friend. Will he remain the same Sahil or he will decide to be the part of the bigger crowd, the crowd that formed because every Sahil till now, decided to change themselves, their values and be a part of the bigger crowd.

Not every sahil changes. Courage isn't dead. Sensitivity, niceness, love...they aren't dead yet in this world. The crowd only follows, Sahils lead.
