When LIGHT Erased DARKNESS

I remember that day very well. It was 2 years ago, when I was in my 10th. It was going to be my Last March, along with my friends. It was October 2nd, Gandhi Jayanthi. And just like every year, this year also our school had decided to take us on a MARCH though Bangalore, in order to raise people's awareness about Gandhi.

We had been asked to be present at 5:30 in the morning. 5:30AM for god's sake!! I would have just fallen into a nice Dream!! How our teachers love to ruin our dreams na? Anyways, I couldn't escape it, and I didn't want to escape it. As I told you before it was my last chance to do this. After that day, even if I myself begged, I wouldn't be allowed to do it, So yeah! I had to go.

I woke up at 5 and then woke up my Dearest Daddy to take me to school. And the road was just the same as in the picture. It was like walking in a zombie land!! And trust me, my dad didn't make it any easier. I kept on talking and talking to him and he didn't even respond. I guess he was sleep walking!! (Thats a bit scary, right?).

Anyways, I just keep on talking so that I wouldn't get scared. Not the night guys, my teacher was walking right in front of me. I was afraid she would turn into a zombie and eat me up! [I should stop watching movies :-/]. I reach school at 5:30 and to my surprise, everyone was already there. Gosh! People go crazy at times.

What more crazy was that we decided to surprise our teachers, and took our positions. Me, being a (really bad) singer, joined the school singing group in their position. We stood there and chit-chatted.
Our teachers came and my oh my! They had a heart attack. Our Headmistress looked as if she could kiss us all.

Finally, our PT SIR joined us, and it was decided that we would start the march at 6:30. So, we stood there waiting for the time to pass, and scorning at our teachers for disturbing our lovely sleep. As it was still dark we couldn't play anything and chit-chat was our only time-pass.

At precisely 6, Something wonderful happened. We were all staring at sky, trying to count the stars(we are that awesome :P) and suddenly, there was light. The sun was rising. The DEAD DARKNESS was now slowly fading and Light had taken its place. Everything looked beautiful. Flock of birds started to fly. It was like living in a Painting. The beauty of it, made us all smile. Its not everyday we see such a thing. It was a Nature Miracle.

That day, not only did we SEE a MIRACLE but learned something from it. No matter how much troubles we face in life, sometime the LIGHT will shine. It will erase all the darkness and Bring a smile to our face, just as it did then.

The beauty of nature cannot be expressed in words. The joy of experiencing it that day, is something I'll never forget. The feeling I had, the Happiness I felt, the Peace there was around. Just Splendid. Nature teaches us a lot, doesn't it?
