dear life 70

dear life,
that day i had a really hectic day; then i had coffee in my quiet favourite coffee shop and relaxed to refreshen for the rest to come. as i came out, it was still raining, and as i walked to the bus stop, the unusual traffic - you know how bad is tehran's traffic even in its usual sense - took me by surprise; yet i was happy that i had so much time to get to my next appointment. as i stood with so many others waiting for the bus or a taxi, i got more and more nervous as each moment passed by - no bus arriving, all taxis passing by full, and the traffic increasing. i was thinking of how to get there on time, of how tired i was, of how shitty everything was, and then i saw these two men waiting for the bus just a few meters from me. they laughed as they talked humurously of the situation, making jokes with the drivers passing by, creating a bright side to it all. they were both tired and were getting back home from a busy day at work, they had had a rough day you could see, but they were making the best of the moment. their courage and good humour toward you and your difficulties was just so amazing that i could do nothing but to admire them as i left the bus stop with a smile on my face to get to my appointment from another route. some people are really amazing.
