Focus on where you need to focus

Every one has got the capacity to focus.. But the question is how many focus on the right thing ?

Recently I was traveling in a bus. There was a conductor who issues the tickets.

One passenger gave a Rs 500 note to buy a ticket costing Rs 10, which naturally irritated the conductor.
He said he would give the change at the end of the journey. Passenger wanted it immediately as the cash bag of conductor is visibly full with change.

Then followed the argument.... Entire bus got divided into two.. one arguing in favor of passenger and the other in favor of conductor.

Slowly the discussions turned hot and point of no return. After fifteen minutes there were people who alighted and there were new people who boarded the bus.

These new people has no idea as to why everybody in the bus were arguing. By this time the discussion was on lack of sufficient lower denomination currency notes in the system.

When somebody started blaming the ruling party, the new people too joined the fight and it took a whole new dimension.

Imagine after another 30 minutes when the bus reached the final destination, it was a completely new fight and nobody knows why they were fighting.

The conductor and the passenger who started the game were the only non contributors and I was the mute spectator trying to imagine how to write this for you..
