Lift Please

After so many days I thought of pen down something in my blog. Being busy(Oh really ????) I was not even touched my blog for a year and felt some thing missing.

Last month I was going back to my place after office around 8pm from Hi-tech city to kukat pally via Hi-Tech city station. It is very common that few of the people will be waiting at cyber towers to go towards kukatpally(most of them to Hi-tech city station) and request for lift in bikes and cars.

I like to give lift to the needy but the question is to whom I have to give lift among them? Generally my methode to sort one person from the crowd will be like this

1. First I prefer the people who are thin (my Bajaj CT100 will cry if both are traveling on it are above 200kgs :-) )

2. Second I will look for the poor. mostly my choise will be people belong to construction work or security staff in the corporate companies near hitech city.

3. A third criteria is the one who is walking rather standing and expecting some one’s lift.

I will get satisfaction most of the times and few times punishments too
Let me explain one such situation:

One day I was on the way to office and near JNTU I saw a 10 years old boy expecting lift. I thought of giving him lift and stopped my bike and called that boy to come and sit.
I surprised to see along with this child another 18 year boy also occupied my back seat.

With his attire of black dress(usually lord sabarimali ayyappa devotees wear black dress)I understand that he is a devotee and I doubted he is not a true devotee. But i don’t have guts to ask that guy to get down(who like to mess with lord ayyappa??).

i started moving.........

few minutes that devotee(i dont think he is a fraud) has started his speech about praying methods and his plans to go kerala etc continuously.

Literally it was a torture and I thought of asking him to get down twice before reaching hitech city. Because of that child i was bearing him. When I reached hitech city this guy has asked me to provide INR 500 towards his expenses to go sabari(Kerala) .

I got angry but being coward to mess up with god I have contributes INR 100 and said bye bye.

So bottom of the story: judge people before giving lift to them
