act 1_week 1:The Shadow Man

After a bad jury in college and a arguement with a friend I was returning home walking in a narrow lane,feeling dejected.Suddenly thinking about the day that went by,I saw a crystal clear culmination of my bad deeds of the past 21 years in the shadow that reflected on the road.The shadow was almost like making fun of me or teasing me,being destructive at times,making me realize about only the wrong things that I had done till now.At times it used to vanish in front of me,helping me ponder over the not so good side of me.

Quote "All that we are is the result of what we have thought. If a man speaks or acts with an evil thought, pain follows him. If a man speaks or acts with a pure thought, happiness follows him, like a shadow that never leaves him.” - GAUTAM BUDHHA
