Lost ticket
Lost ticket
Jay was ready to go to the railway station by bus.
That day he was supposed to go to Mumbai for some educational work. So he
reached very early before the time. At first, he got a ticket at the ticket
counter. Looking at the watch, he had still lots of time to spend there. So he
spent some time at the bookstall, even purchased ‘The Times of India’ and
browsed it quickly. Then he walked up the staircase and came on the platform
where he was supposed to take the train.
The tea vendor, Newspapers Wala and other vendors were
strolling here and there. By that time, he saw at the railway track and noticed
the arrival of a train on the platform.
As soon as the train arrived on the platform, he ran a
little and caught the compartment. He comfortably got in and had a seat. Slowly
the people rushed in and started talking loudly. Then the train began to depart
for the next station. Jay heard that the ticket checker entered the
compartment. The ticket checker came near to Jay and asked for his ticket. He
started finding it into pockets and wallet. But he didn’t find it, looking
puzzled over it. T.T again requested him to see it carefully. But he said to
him that he was trying to find it but not getting. At last T. T pointed out to
him that he has lost the ticket. On it, Jay admitted it and continued searching
for the ticket.
On seeing him confused, T.T said,
“Don’t worry,
you can pay fine and get a new ticket.”
Jay informed him shockingly,
“Sir, I don’t know where I have to go. Only the ticket
can show me. So I am searching for it.”
“What………….?” The ticket checker asked him not to know
where he was going.
Somewhat our career is like the above story. We don’t know
where we have to go. Interestingly we are searching for the lost ticket as Jay
did.
Very true 👌👏
