The Innocence


"Can it change my luck?", she asked curiously pointing to one of the toys I was selling in the robust feast.

"Who told you this princess?", I asked.

"My Mom says, to change your luck you need to have a lucky charm", she replied with all her innocence,"so I'm finding one".

I smiled and gave it to her. She walked away smilingly. I knew it won't change anything, but then there are certain things which are priceless, like her little eyes carrying dreams of having living a life she deserves.

Sometimes the innocence wins everything.

We just need to believe, and the trick will be done.
Its all within ourselves.
And this was innocently hopeful.

So true, even though it won't make her dreams come true, but just in case... :)

as they say ignorance is a bliss... sometimes i wish i didnt know half the things I know now.

Sh@s said...

Sweet story. Despite all reasoning n no matter how sane we are, we do like to believe in charms whether it works or not.

Deepak said...

@ ayyangar: yes, it is :)

@ blasphemous: but it will make her feel psychologically confident :)

@ raajii: yeah sometimes it feels that the ignorant childhood was much better :)

@ shas: believing is everything, if u believe then even God is here, otherwise nowhere :)
