Falling leaf

It was very cold.
I was walking through the woods.
My thought was wandering.
I happen to notice a single leaf falling down.
My thoughts started focussing on the leaf.
It’s not just a falling leaf,
It’s a dry leaf.
Its lifetime is over
And It has fallen in the mud.
It’s going to lose its form. It’s going to disintegrate
But of course it becomes humus in this process.
It’s going to nurture the trees again.
Similarly our life has purpose to live.
Even after we leave this world our body may be destroyed,
but our good thoughts and deeds remain forever.
Our thoughts and actions continue to take different forms.
It passes to people. It gets enhanced and develops.
But never dies.
I decided to focus my thoughts on being useful to this world.
I felt a warmth.
