GURU

Friends,
This is an incident which I am unable to forget.

Recently I had been to my native place,a short visit to meet my parents and relatives.During my stay there one day I had gone to a shopping mall along with my sister.When we were about to enter the shop I heard somebody calling my name from behind.I turned my head,and to my surprise it was my primary school teacher.She has taught me in class three and fourth.We both ran towards her.She is a christian nun.She just embraced us with  her fragile hand.She has grown very old ,retired from service long back.I asked her "Teacher how did you recognise me after such a long long years?'. She replied"I just guessed it my dear,your face resembled my old lovable student and I wanted to see you since long and god has fullfilled my wishes.'I simply stood there and cried, unable to speak anything.Holding my hand so tightly she asked everything  about me including my age.My answer was in monosyllables.Seeing this my sister also started crying.To ease the situation she asked'well you used to like me singing let me sing for you once again' and she sang a religious song to my utter surprise in that melodious voice.I became completly lost finding difficult to controll my tears.Suddenly I realized people started watching us  and noticing that she embraced us once again and left.I felt so lost and it struck me then only that I did not even ask her where she is staying and what she is doing and her contact number etc.  I cursed myself  for my foolishness, my  thoughtlessness ".At the same time I was glad that I am being blessed by my GURU  achieved everything.That lean fragile looking figure in grey cloak,head covered in black and that thin frame glass and that pleasant moments will be always with me and praying to god to keep her hail and hearty where ever she is!
