The
sun was blazing... Its rays were
pricking.
I
was sweating profusely... my foot ached intolerably.
A
vacation during summer is a curse and my filthy job granted me leave only
during summer!
So
there I was...
Cursing
my job... Life... Myself... Random strangers... The Super power... And who not!
And
then I saw her...
Wearing
a soldier’s attire; standing erect....
Regardless
of seasons and unconcerned of others
A
pillar of determination she was.
About
what I was complaining, I wondered. She made me feel so small.
I
took a deep breath...
Then
I looked around...
The
World smiled at me!
I guess there's always someone worse off than oneself. A good take on the prompt. The World is smiling.
