MY DIARY PAGES [BY BALWANTSINGH BISHT]

 MY DIARY PAGES (February,09---17February 2021)

I usually write my diary pages on the prospect of what comes on the way at the duration of Morning Walk. Mostly I focus on watching birds, stray cattle, the morning walkers, and the youth preparing for their future starting the day with jogging and running. This looks very nice in the morning. On 9th February morning, everything was as usual as other days. I have completed the trek, now I was running with my doggy named Roxy, a Wrott Weiller, speedily as some puppies and a dog were barking and running after us. Meanwhile, Roxy did a U-turn forcibly to bite the chasing dogs behind. I was unaware of my dog's planning, fell on the road as the chain was in my hold. I fell down with a force by my right side and fractured my femur head and bridge plate joining the hip bone. Soon, I rushed to a private hospital for treatment. I went under an operation in order to fix up the fractured bones by supporting titanic rods.

THE DOG FELT SORRY FOR IT, AT THE ACCIDENT SITE.

My dog Roxy chased the barking dogs, taking its chain along but failed to catch them hold in her grip and came back to me. She found me sitting by the side of the road helplessly. It soon realized that something happened wrong due to her. It sat beside me and began to look at my face apologizing, again and again. I saw tears in her eyes for the first time. As, I was unable to move, and waiting for a hired taxi. I asked my dog to go home, later, my family members tried their best to take it with them but failed. Everybody who saw this scene was surprised at the love shown to her master. Soon, I sat in the taxi, and the dog came behind it up to the point of its home saying goodby to me. I acknowledged the dogs are very faithful animals and my doggy Roxy, was one of them. Since then, I realized its value more.
