That 10 RS Note

Hi,

This is again something happened with me two days before, as usual i was going to home around 8:30 PM , this is my usual timing when i get down from company cab and walk toward "Cypress" my rented flat.
Usual routine is like putting headphones and listening Radio mirchi , then on the way buying vegetables for home, if possible going to temple which is also on the way, then going to parcel kitchen for collecting Rotis, there having talk with regular KAKA who gives me these Rotis everyday.
So that day also I was heading for my home, generally i look here and there what people are doing etc , some times down if i am in mood of that song, so some song was going on on radio and when i looked down i observed one 10 rs ka note lying down, i stopped for second and continued my path.
going ahead thought came in my mind that why i didn't picked that note, because i do recall incidences when in childhood whenever i found some money on road or so it was great pleasure,
I remember one fight with my bro on who saw that 50 paisa coin in campus of our uncle's flat. and who should decide what to do with it, then even in Engg days once when we shifted to new room and we were cleaning it we found 2 rs coin, now what to do with that money, whose property is that? what we did was three of us added one rupee each and made it 5 rs and then bought one BHUTTA to eat, shared it among us , and it was great pleasure in sharing it that way....
these and so many other incidences i can recall, some times when some elder one was with us they asked us to put that money in donation box in temple or giving it to beggar, but whatever may be case i had some feeling of finding that thing , and even satisfaction in doing something with it.
But I don't know why i didn't picked 10 rs that day, i am still thinking about possible reasons, though i earn good money now , I am still so called KANJUSH only, i could have donated that money in temple where i usually go which was taught to me in Childhood, but i didn't ... don't know why...

I really liked the post.
And I completely agree to what Rupali says. Somewhere I feel we are lost in this materialist world and don’t realize the importance and happiness of small things. And with BIG IT salary, we have lost the importance and valuing the small monetary amounts.
