Truth 1 - Welcome to the World

It was a bright sunny noon of 14th August, 1986, that suddenly there was a hustle and bustle in the house. The shrieking sound of the car brakes in the parking area and a man running towards a lady, who was crying out of pain, to catch hold of her. They both shared a relationship of husband and wife and it was nothing but a labor pain. Her sister accompanied her and all the oldies stayed back home praying for the well being of their girl. She was only 23 years of age at that time and was a pretty simple girl with a glowing skin that nurtured even more during her pregnancy. She also had a fear on her face and was crying aloud. The tears and sweat on her face were making her hair wet giving her the only one of its kind beauty that her husband was missing. He too had the same panic in his heart. The only thing that he wanted was to take his wife and child safely to the hospital. It was a white FIAT rushing on the road, leaving the traffic behind. Alongwith the anxiety creeping up in the minds of the family and the ear-splitting cry of the would-be-mother, gradually the weather of the town was also changing its temper. The cool breeze was gradually taking up its speed and was turning to a blowing wind. Heavy rains lashed the city too. At the same time people inside the car were stressed up as they could actually see the water levels going up on the street. They were merely praying to Lord Indra for a favourable climate so that they reach safely to the hospital.
