A thousand leaves got blown away by the wind, some fell on the pavement, some on mud , some on grass and one leaf fell on the ground near a rose. The leaf thought that he was the luckiest person in the world. He adored the rose,he was awe-struck by the beauty of the rose and smitten by its fragrance he fell in love with it,forgetting his origins, forgetting his roots, his past his limitations and his future.For a moment in the sane madness of love , the leaf forgot that he was no different from other leaves who had fallen of the tree,and that his future was nothing but to get buried in the ground with other leaves. He could not go near the rose because of its thorns and the rose had its own leaves , but still the leaf loved the rose's company.
There were nine hundred and ninety nine other leaves, but why did only that leaf fell near the rose, there must have been some purpose, some divine purpose, something that brought them togather.
The leaf lived his whole life in the moment of his love with the rose ,and his happiness was incomparable to anything in his lifetime. But a strong gust of wind broke it all. Once again the leaf got blown away, and blown away with it were all his dreams, his desires, everything that he had imagined. He saw his dreams crashing down,the image of rose fading away as he was swept away by the wind. Perhaps the wind will bring with it some other leaf to the rose.
In case you happen to read this and you are still interested, you might want to answer this.
Was the leaf indeed lucky to have loved the rose for that fleeting moment, or was he unlucky to have suffered the pain of a lifetime in return for a moment of happiness.
