I was under going depression because of bundle of problems.....The 

Sunrise   didn't   affect  me......The  blue colour sky with twinkling stars didn't

affect  me.... I was very  fond of  music  but  I was no mood to enjoy 

it....Somebody  sent  a beautiful  card  but  it   didn't  attract  me....My servant 

was  amazed  at the unfolded   newspapers.....I went to  park but  my  usual

interest  in  playing  by  children   got  unnoticed....I could not think of  any

thing  else......I lost interest in life..... "Huh ".....I said to myself.....".What hell I 

am  doing in this world ?"  I blamed the God for  giving me birth in this world.

   One  day I  went to the  sea shore and sat  there blankly...." I must stop

myself  thinking ."  I saw children making castles of sand...The sun-set did

not  attract to me.....I saw a boy  of ten   selling   ground nut.... a liitle  away

from me....I saw him sitting  down  and  busy counting money.....He was

thinking  some  thing......I just got up  from my place and went to him....

   "So  whts  up.....are  you  not  going  to school   ?"  "Sir......having  holidays'
 
" Where is your father ?"  "He is no more.."  "Ok...your  mother ...?"  "She is

a maid...."  "why  you sell things ?" " I have to collect money for my books..I

go to  school run by  corporation....so   no tension of fees but  I gather money

to help my mother in case of illness and  to buy books pensils and rubber..." 

" You  don't miss your father.."

" Sir  we cant do any thing about it..My aim is to become a doctor...."  : I was

quite amazed by his talk.....The next day I met him again and  went to meet

his mother......she  was surprised......but  I told them to share their problems

     I did not stop them doing their job......I did not stop the boy selling ground

nuts.....but  I made them felt  I was with them in difficulties......so  that  the

boy  could  fulfill  his  dreams....after  some time I came out of my depression.

The Sun rise was never so beautiful ever.....The chirping of birds never so

enchanting.....The tea  was not so stimulizing as ever ....! 

..............................................................................................................................................................................................................

      Ps  ......every body in life time faces such problem....if your dear one suffers....just take care of him/her........

He / she/ will say leave me alone....keep cool.....let her/him speak out hi/her problem.....let him/her open up..gve 

time......do not take extra care or  sympathy......you have to take it easy.....medicines may help...be in contact

with a good  doctor......listen to him/her.....dont argue....I am not doctor....but learnt   little  from life...

   Reasons are many.....loss of a friend.... a failure.....a loss in any  kind.....keep patience.....!   generally  the person
 
under depression  get angry  on his  closest person in life...... The children throw tantrums at his mother in most
 
of cases....Time is healing factor.....Handle with care.....!.I know it is dificult situation but  you can talk with your
 
friends ,realtives.....But person under depression may not like to communicate with other than you....!

Please  take  care.......Aruna
