Little kid who trekked   The Seven hills high hills. Along with his family. Singing, running happily. It was a pilgrimage. Planned to fulfill by age. To seek the blessings   Of the mighty by offerings  Dhruv was a little kid, four years of age. So obviously very enthusiastic about everything felt like exploring everything, interested in everything. He was walking by foot along with his family to fulfill an oath taken by his parents that they would walk seven hills to offer their tribute to the almighty God who resides on the seven hills abode. So what is so surprising about this you might be wondering.  Dhruv's father and mother and his tiny little brother were on this pilgrimage.  After some distance, Dhruv started walking a bit slowly checking his newly bought shoes that were very expensive and beautiful. His parents chide him for he keeps slowing down every now and then to check his shoes. The seven hills had to be climbed before sunset and then they had to take some rest and proceed to have a darshan of the mighty God and get his precious blessings. The tiny baby had to be fed for it was quite a long time since he was given milk. He would be hungry. But Dhruv continued to check his shoes and walk again. Now his father gets irritated and goes to Dhruv who sits on the ground and was checking his shoes, his father goes near him and pulls Dhruv's hand off the shoes and tries to push his feet and tie the lace again. Now what he sees?? A big blister caused because of the new shoes. It was the shoe bite. Imagine the little boy was managing to walk all this distance with a shoe bite for company. Dhruv's parents felt very bad for chiding him. They remove the shoes and apply some ointment that was in their bag, buy him ice-cream and give him sandals to wear and then continued with their trip. They had a wonderful trekking experience, had a great darshan of the almighty God and felt very very blessed and happy.
