magic!!

I was travelling in the 2nd class compartment of aamchi mumbai local train from GTB commomly called koliwada station to vashi...sitting across was a mother with two school goin daughters,both in their uniforms, one was a little younger probably in class 4 ...chatting about various things....
when we crossed the vashi creek..it is a beautiful view from the train...shimmering water,boating fishermen with colorful flags on their boats,white birds flying jst above water n trying to get at some fish....its simply photograhic....with some difficulty to picture it while the train moves...
people throw various things in water...like coconuts...flowers...n wat not... n this little girl had probably witnessed such things before...now she was excited,as we arrived over the waters....she took out a coin from her schoolbag n was attempting to throw it out of the window when her mother stopped her from doing so...obviously as simple as she looked..m sure she did not want to waste any money on such tricks...as if well aware that fun is not meant for the poor...
i donno wat happened...someone spoke suddenly from within me...i actually asked her to throw it in the water...i said jst throw it n make a wish...wat did u ask? n some fisherman will find it...n god will even grant ur wish!! she shyed away with a cute smile....but i was amazed at my own behaviour...how cud i ask her to go ahead even when her mother refused...???
n y not? wat is life without hope? n we all believe that some magic works in our lives...in some form or the other...some people..love...work...relations....dreams...
someone gives us hope...n we relive to realise our dreams even in the worst times...n dreams n magic n hope is for all...rich or poor...small or big...good or bad....
then y not give hope that there is magic!!.... to all who come into our lives... to realise their dreams....n wat u get bak is a lovely smile with twinkling eyes...isnt that magical??
