Director-in-Charge,
Depository of Dreams.
Sir,
I always wondered what my dreams mean? I have come to believe that each of my dreams give a peek into what the future holds for me and people in my life. Today, I wanted to share one such dream of mine, that turned into reality.
A prisoner was seated at a table, and an officer of merit was standing across the table. After few moments of silence, a conversation ensued. The prisoner said, "It is a tremendously hostile world that I endure...I am here to survive. It is natural that everyone has an instinct to survive. I learnt to live my life the way I do, after understanding what tremendous feats human beings are capable of once they abandon dignity." Both were silent for a while, and then the officer said, "Acquire a heart...only then you can call yourself human, and understand what suffering means. And what you call a tremendous feat, is in reality a heinous act."
And then I woke up...
Today, I understood...she was the prisoner, and the officer was me.
In complete honesty,
Abhijith
