I had the most bizarre conversation with a taxi driver...yes...i know it sounds weird but here I was hailing cab to go to work...and this really old driver says.."dont get in from there..get in from the other side"..he totally stumped me with his impeccable english..and we went on to have a conversation and i learnt that he stays in one of the flats in the building right up my lane..he drives the taxi cos he lost all his money in bizness some years back..and this is his way of meeting his daily expenses..he was so matter of fact about the whole thing. He said this is his way of doing his karma. He humbled me.
And in a completely stupid twist of fate I lost my cell fone and i realised I had no numbers on my fone.I felt so helpless and bereft of not knowing anyone- forgot my brothers number too.Then i remembered the old driver and everything he had lost...and his spirit of living his life and feeling blessed with what he has.
