The old man at the harbour
It is always a busy day at the harbor.
Ships being loaded with cargos and passengers, fishermen getting their daily bread along with people who sell and buy essentials by the side. Everybody goes about their activities at the harbor with a lot of chitter and chatter, so you can say the harbor is always in a hustle and a bustle!
But among this hustle and bustle, there is an old man who is a little bent because of the many years he has lived. The old man lives in a shanty near the harbor, not too far from the shore. He mends net for the fishermen for a very meagre wage.
A harsh life this old man leads but despite it all, the old man carries a wide smile on his face and with that smile, he gives out pleasantries to any body near.
But, the people at the harbor pay him no attention, after all there is a lot that needs to be done, no time to exchange unnecessary pleasantries.
Still, despite all this, the old man keeps on smiling and giving out pleasantries. At times he sits on the boat...
