One fine evening, Reena was sitting in her balcony watching the road running parallel to her house. A group of children playing and chattering about the events that happened in the school and boasting their parents about their achievements.

Chintu, approximately five years old child praises his dad, "My dad fights like a superman". Another boy Bobby retorted in a jiffy, "You know we went to a AMB theater which is one of the costliest in the whole Hyderabad to watch cinema ROBO2. In the interval we had pizza, french fries etc"

The other children were silent and listening carefully. Few of them made a mouth wide expression as if his Bobby's dad is the richest among all others. Their expression was very funny and naive which bought a satisfied smile to Reena. Before Reena divert to other topic, she thought these children was not famous about GODs' Game.

Suddenly all the spiritual thought flooded into the Reena's mind and it travelled to her root welcoming them. Before 36 years where I was, Who I was and How was I formed from. I was just like a sprout during the first month of my Mom's pregnancy and grown up to big women. She thought.

I don't have answer to it and left it to God. Oh God! You are great, she thanked.

I have to cook, Reena alerted. But the previous thought was so inquisitive that it was chasing Reena's mind. Reena was trying to understand whether God is great or the living being.

She was thinking "I was fed for 9 month from my mom's womb and all the organs are created like weapons [Hands, legs, brain, nose etc] and my Mom prepared me and delivered to win against God's game. My mother's milk give me all courage to face all the hurdles in the human life". But God is not foolish, he created Love with his witch craft. After taking birth, we are adjusted who takes care of us and call them Mother and Father. Similarly parents are also enticed towards their children called emotional bonding. We don't know Love is boon or bane but there is no exception to it. Love is like a rooted plant which serve until raw become ripen fruit and fall down from tree. It is like drinking illusive poison assuming that we are drinking water. So God called it Maya and People call it Love. Yes we Know. We are trapped in most deceiving trick of God's game which is nothing but Love.

But our positive attitude said, "So what? If I am susceptible to pain coming out of love then God will be the loser.

The Game didn't end here, Reena continue. I daily commute from office to home two hours daily.at Gachibowli circle, vehicle stand there due to heavy traffic.I watched people around, every one is in hurry to reach home after day hardwork but cannot sadly. They have to wait till the traffic clears. Instead they enjoy traffic police half hindi and english. Oh! lal bike wala tum gbera [Zebra] crossing ke peeche rehana g.Traffic police is hero to all the beggars line up there to beg money and fill their stomach.The beggars act more than cinema actors to earn their bread. Looking at them my thought flied above the sky and reached God who is binge watching the public and their problems. I asserted are you proud God now with your strategies applied on people and troubling them.

Although I feel pity that without food living thing cannot survive.To earn food dump your legs and hands on the wheels of hardwork.

If you question the God. God call it "Karma" but we call it as our "Dharma". Never give up attitude in the human beings is driving both poor and rich. Again Reena is happy because God is the loser in front of our will power.

Before all these thoughts fade away from Reena's mind, she got a news that in her immediate neighbor Jasu's father is died due to cancer. He is just 36 year old guy, left his wife and two children. Reena showed her anguish and thought, OMG,you used your powerful tool call disease. You are creating diseases which are more than human population.

Now God call it as Darhma and we call it as our karma. My attitude says! We have to accept and start living life. This is not an end.

So once again we are not loser in the God's game.

Finally Reena concluded that God is definitely great but we are winners when we accept the life the way it is.
