Life is the name of incidents. We have several incidents going through our life. Some make us cherish while some sadden us. As my university is in summer break these days, so I have to stay at home before the semester starts. I am staying from July and then August is ending now. Its been two months since I am at home. I am seeing different incidents on regular basis. The same heart breaking incident happened yesterday that I am going to narrate it in the following words.
The incident happened
It was about yesterday morning, when I woke up and was wandering here and there in my house. My mum went to school for teaching purpose, as she is the principle. Our maid had already came and she was doing some house chores. She was about to go and already completed her work. It was nearly 9am in the morning. The lounge fan was switched on and it was giving air. I was passing by the maid and suddenly, a bird hit the ceiling fan and fallen down. I become afraid that what happened and stood around the table in the lounge. The maid call me and asked me what to do with this bird as it was hit by the fan and was about to die.
It was lying on the floor and his eyes was seeing the sky. I asked her that let him lay here, After it died, we will dig a grave for it and will bury him. She looked at me and after some minutes she asked me to get something so that we could fetch water for it and give it water so that it can feel better.
I don't know about animals much
I am a nob about animals and I don't know how to treat them since we don't have any pet, animal in our house, neither we interacted them before.
It started breathing
When we fetched a water in a cover of bottle, and gave it to the bird, it drank and then after that he started breathing. I was looking at it precisely that what would happen after giving water to it and fortunately, it opened its eyes and started moving its feathers to get up.
Water has blessed powers
Before this, I have read everywhere that water is the life for all the living organisms and none can live without it. It can give life to the nearly dead ones. Thats why in war zone, the injured people are given water so they can feel better. So yesterday I got to know that , these words are true and water has some kind of special powers, that this miracle happened.
What did I do then?
I was frightened to see it in that condition, where blood was pouring out. I first thought that it injured itself from the neck but after that my maid took it in her hands and saw that it was its eye that was injured. After giving water to it, she asked me to get some ointment so we can help it. I ran inside the room and get an external ointment named as POLYFAX.
We use it on skin for any skin issues. This is the ointment, I then applied on hits eye, that it can be helpful and can cure its eye. You can see her eye was injured and after applying some ointment , it felt well and started looking and moving here and there
The maid advised me to take care of it
When she was leaving, she asked me to take care of the bird, as she can't fly in this condition and might be possible any other animal can try to attack her. I promised myself that I would take care of it. For her safety purpose, I took her inside from the lawn and then give a special place only for the bird. I gave her water in a small bottle cover and keep her giving time to time.
As it was drinking, it was getter better and better. I tried to give some cooked rice too but it didn't eat. I still don't know the reason of it. Well I left her here so she can be well soon.
I put an airy basket on her
Oh wait...
Did I left her alone near the sky so that anything can eat her? No...I didnt want this. SO I took a basket , we use to keep some papers. I kept the things on the table and took it to cover the bird. Then, I cover the bird under the basket so none animal can eat her up.
It was a DOVE
I put a whatsapp status about her and asked everyone to pray for her as it was injured. Then one of my friend revealed the thing that she must be looking like a pigeon. I said yes, so he said that its a DOVE. Thanks to all the friends who prayed for her.
She flew away the next day
I kept checking her all the day and gave her a visit outside the bucket too, in front of my eyes. I was frightened to see any animal around her so I did it for only minutes. It was walking, but not flying. Before going to bed, I checked her and it was all fine. Then I went to sleep. The next day , I saw that there wasnt the basket nor the bird. I asked the maid and she said , the bird flew away. I was happy because of her freedom, and too because she was alright now
Concluding thoughts
It was our maid that saved her life otherwise I would have let the bird go. I am really thankful to her that she gave the chance to me, to take care of that bird. I felt too much special for looking her out.
Well what about you? Did you do anything like this in your life? share your experience..
You did what was right. And I'm glad the dove didn't die.
