                                        The joy of freedom

Let us start with another familiar story but before that a few words about my friend Ranjit Guha of Durgapur.I am extremely lucky to have him among my friends. He is originally from Ashoknagore, North 24 Parganas. So far I know his family had migrated from the erstwhile East Pakistan ( Now Bangladesh to India. After completing his graduation he came to Durgapur in search of a job. he got what he wanted and decided to live there permanently.Now he has become a part and parcel of the socio-cultural mindscape of Durgapur. He is a colourful character loved and adored by thousands of his admirers across generations. He wanted to read my blogspot but cannot open it. I feel relieved. He would surely have found some mistakes and made fun of me. What a relief !

Now the story:

During the first World War an English soldier was captured and taken a POW( prisoner of war ) by the French Army . He was kept in a solitary cell. He could not meet anybody and had given up all hope of returning to his native country among his own people. But fortunately the war came to an end an armistice was declared by the warring nations. As per the agreement there was an exchange of POWs and the soldier was released.He went back to his native village and decided to settle in there and lead a quiet and peaceful life. Years passed quietly.He had become quieter too.One sunny and tranquil morning he was passing through the middle of a market when his roving eyes fell on a cluster of cages. A bird seller was selling captured birds. He went to the shop and purchased all the cages full of birds.The shopkeeper was taken aback. He was curious to know what the man would do with so many birds. He followed the soldier out into the open. He kept on walking. when spend  he reached at the outskirt of the market he sat down under the shade of a big, sprawling tree. The bird seller stood at a distance. He opened the doors of the cages one by one and let the bird fly away into freedom. The bird seller stood dumbfounded. He could not help asking him ,'' Excuse me sir, why did you spend so much money if your real intention was to release them ?'' The soldier smiled a mysterious smile and said ,'' You wont understand. I know how it feels to live in captivity.'' Saying this he moved along the road happily.
