Voice of the Roads
The long roads always do have a story to tell. Having a ride on the long roads always keeps us cherishing and drives us to go crazy.
Twenty years back, the long roads in the metro city always caught my eyes and made me fall in love with it. Those days were with less traffic and pollution. Roadside shops, tall buildings, apartments, view of an electric train, flyovers adds fantasy to the ride. There was a lot of Infrastructure changes in these years, but not the lengthy amazing roads
Two years back, I met with an accident at that time heard the road’s voice.
Voice of the Roads:
“Dear, Don’t get scared or panic. You are lying on the lap of Mother Earth, may not be the bed of roses but not the bed of thorns. I have seen you many times with different emotions.
Many untold stories are hidden, both happiness and sorrow. Interconnections between us(roads) communicate events that are happening in different places. When flowers cuddle on us, happy travelers make me joyful. In the same way, funeral ceremony, unexpected accidents makes me distressed.
There are many fractures(cracks) and wounds(pits) on me created by humans. All high-end model vehicles, safety measures, and rules and regulations become meaningless when people got injured because of the cracks in me. At the time of every accident, heartbeat rises for the safety of humans. In rainy seasons, I am immersed in water and shouts at the riders to go safely, but even that got soaked in water even before it reaches the rider’s ear.
Every accident, major or minor does have an impact on a person’s life. Don’t become a victim of me and don’t make me a victim because of human errs.”
Every road accident does not add figures to the statistics, but also adds in Life pages.
