Mr Nobody

Who is Mr. Nobody? What is Mr. Nobody? Is it a person, an object, or what??? I believe all of you who would read this would think for a second. What exactly am I trying to point at?
So then why dont you people yourselves answer it. We all know the answer. Or do we really.

Ok lets play a small game here. We all use public transport everyday. There are many like us who do. We all come across various kinds of people. Though these people have nothing to do with our lives but isnt it sometimes that these very people do things which for that small time touches our lives. Say you are feeling sick and returning from office. You want some water and alas your bottle is empty. Just out of your very need you ask the person next to you for water. He/she offer take their bottle out and give you water. You thank them share a smile and thats it. But heyy who was that person. What was their name. Isnt that person a Mr. Nobody.

Ok next game. You are very sad someday. Just wandering around or going somewhere or coming back from somewhere. You cross a face in the crowd which just sees your face and smiles. That person is a perfect stranger. But does it so not happen that small smile for a second just makes you also smile. You also just for that forget your worries and feel good. But then who was that person. Why was that smile. Another Mr. Nobody??

Ok another point. You have met with an accident. Someone from the bypassers helps you. Takes you to hospital gets you medication. You thank them. But then 10-15 days when you are narrating the same incident to someone you know what do we say. Ohh that person was nice helped me may God do good to him. But who was that person before and after that incident to you.

These very small cases that I have put up before you all. Just think for once. I am not saying that we should go and make every such person somebody in our lives but should we not learn something from this.
Today's world has runs at a hectic pace. We all want to reach somewhere. But then somewhere on the way dont we do things to people who we know that they become Mr. Nobody. Do we not carry this assumption of oh what he/she did was just another thing. Any of my known people would have done that. And then gradually even known people start to act as strangers and one day become strangers.

Just a request guys please think and then do things. I know its easier said than done. But then do we surely do not know who is Mr. Nobody or act in that way..
