At the Train Station

It was a sunny day, but the climate was enjoyable. Everyone in the
railway station was waiting for the train to arrive. Among the crowd,
there was a group of friends, youngsters who were on board for
vacation.
The group of friends made loud noise to welcome the train as it
entered the station. They ran to get their reserved seats before anyone
could get into the train.
The empty seats were filled, and the train whistled to move. An old man with a young
boy aged around 15 years old came running to catch the train. They entered the train and
the train started to move. They had their seats just beside the friends’ group.
The young boy was so surprised to see everything. He acclaimed at his father, “Dad!
The train is moving, and the things are moving backwards!” His father smiled and nodded
his head.
As the train started moving fast, the young boy again screamed, “Dad! The trees are
green in color and run backward very fast!” His father said, “Yes dear,” and smiled.
Just like a kid, he was watching everything with great enthusiasm and happiness loaded
with tons of surprises.
A fruit seller passed selling apples and oranges. The young boy asked his dad, “I want
to eat apples.” His father bought him apples. He said, “Oh apple looks so sweet than it
tastes! I love this color!”
The group was watching all the activities of this boy and asked the boy’s father, “Is your
son having any problem? Why is he behaving very differently?”
A friend from the group made fun of him and shouted, “His son is mad I think.”
The father of the young boy, with patience, replied to the group of friends.
“My son was born blind. Only a few days before he was operated and got the vision. He is
seeing various things in his life for the first time.”
The young friends became very quiet and apologized to the father and son.
