In a city, a man used to stand on the side of a road every evening, keep smiling and talk to himself, and while walking he would put his hands on the road, close his eyes and think about something. Everyone called him a fool, laughed at him, but he paid no attention to anyone, he was engrossed in his own thoughts.
Once in the evening after school a boy saw him and asked his father who is this papa and why is he smiling like that? Papa did not answer the question.
Such a boy used to watch and observe the foolish man every day.
One day the boy was coming out of school crying and his dad was telling him not to cry, don't cry. Then the stupid man's eyes went to the sound of that crying and the stupid man told his dad to let him cry. And he started telling the boy to cry loudly. As the boy began to cry loudly, this foolish man began to laugh loudly at the boy.
Everyone started looking at him. The boy's father pushed the fool aside and took the boy in the car and left. The stupid man was smiling even after the boy left.
When the boy came home, he said to his father, Why the uncle laugh when they saw me crying? The boy's father said that he is a fool..then the boy said that today I am happy. Today I cried.
After several days, the boy used to see that stupid man every day. That stupid man used to smile like that every day.
One day after school, the boy looked on the side of the road like every time, but today he did not see that stupid man. The boy immediately asked the shopkeeper on that side of the road, 'Where did that grandfather who used to come here every day', the shopkeeper said, 'His health deteriorated. The person admitted to the hospital'.
The boy immediately went to the hospital on the same day. In that hospital, the idiot was lying on the bed. The boy went and asked the idiot. "When I am crying, everyone tells me to be quiet. Why do you tell me to cry more loudly and why do you laugh when I crying why? The fool said ‛Because I'm a fool'.The boy said ‛I know you are hiding something'.The fool said how did you know.The boy said ‛I also hid everything and it came out in tears that day'...If you want to tell then tell me otherwise, don't
That stupid man starts saying
"That day was my daughter's birthday. I was very happy. It was my daughter's birthday." My daughter was very happy when my wife and I took her for shopping. I used to see her smiling all the time and on that day she was very happy and I was also very happy when she was smiling.
Three of us were waiting for the bus on the side of the road. I got a man's phone, I went to talk on the phone, when I heard a loud noise, I turned back.
My life was ending, my daughters and wife were lying on the road. One of my daughter's arms was broken, she was bleeding from every part of her body, but there were no tears in her eyes. She looked at me and went away, leaving me.'
Hearing this, the boy spoke, then you must have cried a lot, right?
The foolish man said, ``No, not at all.''
The boy said, ``Because of how you became a fool.''
The fool said, "People think I'm a fool, but I'm not a fool. I'm stuck in time like a bird in a cage. Outside the cage is a trap called memory and a key called tears."
The boy says ‛Then why don't you use the key called tears and cry once and restart your life.'
The foolish man says, "Out of the cage I must not go. The wings that gave me the strength to fly high in the sky are no longer wings." And I'm waiting to die in the same cage with my memories of that feather. I don't want to use the key called tears.'
The boy says ‛But didn't you try to forget that feather means your daughter.'
The foolish man said, "No, if my daughter had cried that day, I would have cried on seeing her and forgotten everything." But she was not crying, she was satisfied that my dad will save me no matter what happens, it could easily be seen on her face. But I could not save her.'
And the stupid man said ‛thank you your father admitted me to the hospital now I will stay in this cage for some more days..'
The boy said nothing and walked home.
And after going home asked papa, "Dad, how good you are, you saved that stupid man."
The father told the son
They said they were not stupid, I was stupid and started crying.
Because he said so
2 months ago when his wife died he cried but the boy didn't cry but he used to cry every night.Whenever the boy went to cry his dad would tell him not to cry.
But that day a boy from his class said something to him about his mother he was crying but his father told him to keep quiet but because of those stupid man he cried heartily and after some days he was able to sleep peacefully.
Sometimes it is difficult to forget some things but it is necessary to forget those things otherwise our life will be stuck in that time and people will start thinking stupid...
And one thing people stuck in a time cage are stupid is that we who cannot understand them..
