I just got injured while trying to play cricket a few days ago. The ball hit right in my eye and I was taken to a hospital. The doctor informed that there is a permanent damage in the cornea and probably I wont be able to see through that eye properly ever again. I wonder how unlucky I am, as it never happened to anyone else. What are the odds, ball being hit at the same time I was standing at the exact place, and hitting EXACTLY in the eye. What kind of joke is nature playing on me? While nobody cares, I was taken home and nobody cares much. As my mother brought me water, I asked, "Why did this happen to me? What is my fault?" She replied,"Nothing" and left.
I cried. Not because of the pain, but because I cant stop these things from happening to me.
But that's not enough, what makes me sad is how people think. My uncle came to see me and said, "Don't worry. You are not alone." And then he explained how different things have happened to different people, and how they have to live with them. Some examples were of heart cancer, some of blindness, etc.
I was so angry at the time, I didn't care and asked what's the point. He said that this should reduce your pain. At that time, I just wanted to slap him. How can he think that by knowing the pain of others would make me less worried? In fact it should make me feel even more sad. Does he expect me to feel happy if more people have troubles in their lives? What are these people upto?
