A innocuous looking young boy, Rishi boards the train from Mumbai to Surat 

His dad came to drop the mom and son in the AC chair car and his adventures started from thereon. Not willing to sit on the allotted seat he jumped into the adjoining seat , luckily the passenger was to board from Borivali!

He runs out of her mother’s lap every moment , while she chases her up all the way till the coach door. But he refuses to settle at one place. 

Soon he was the darling of the coach with everyone tracking him and seeing that he doesn’t fall on the way. Offering him sweets and other eatables became a small time competition, which he enjoyed participation!

After an hour of relentless efforts her mother finally tried the old trick , opens up the cartoon videos on her mobile . That soothes him off somewhat while he munches a few chips , but the peace was short lived. Here he pops out of the lap again and runs to the end of the corridor, but thankfully stopped by an old bearded man and pulled towards his seat. He doesn’t speak much , probably not yet opened his vocal chords, but his acts speak far louder , something which we as grown ups need to emulate ! He is carefree young lad enjoying the journey called life. 

At Vapi several of the office goers get down and he has a far more open space now jumping from one to the other seat, before getting on top of the centre table and having a gala time there!!

Childhood is so much fun and mindfulness , one does what one enjoys. No worries of being seen and commented upon , of the rights and wrongs , of being irresponsible and yet getting away ! Of hearing all preaches yet not acting on one of them!! I wish I had the luxuries ☺️
