Frozen heart

I happened to be an eye witness of an accident followed by its death yesterday, while I was on my way to office.  It was haunting me for long hours.  The victim was not a human being but a small kitten. But it was alerting me all the way until the world cup soccer fever.  But it was following me again, when I was passing through the same place in the morning.  It seems somebody was scratching me again and again.

 

I was heading to catch my bus to office yesterday night.  At a narrow road, I was feeling somebody following me silently and turned back and found a Lexus SUV was just behind.  Given up my way to it and was heading again.  But some how I just look back my way and found a kitten was fighting with death.  It's head was broken and right eye came out.  One of its front leg too was broken.  It was an heart-breaking scene.  I don't know what should I do on this; I couldn't.  Walkig forward while looking back on that scene, my mind was struggling to find some solution.  At the signal, before crossing the road, happened to look at its situation; it was dead already.  Many was passing that location, throwing a look at that poor kitten.

While heading to the bus station, some questions were raised on my mind.  Because it was a stray cat, nobody was bothered on its last situation.  What if in its place, it was a human being?  I was thinking in that way.  If it was a human being fighting for its life, how many, included me, try to avoid that and try to go ahead for own business?  How many try to find a way to save the life?  What if it was your pet happened to be in that situation?  Would I or you try to avoid by saying, can't help, give up?  There was a lot of questions like this raised on my mind.  Was it due to a confession or something else, made me to think like this?  I don't know; but it was haunting me like anything.

When I was going back to hime, I was searching for its dead body at that location.  But there were no evidence of such accident.  Somebody had moved it already.  Again the questions were raising on me.  How merciful or kindful am I to my fellow human beings?  What is my mentality towards this kind of incidents?  I am still asking and searching for an answer.  The questions are on, but still searching.
