Speeding car…

Sanjay, a rich guy, loved fast cars and he did have a few in his
possession. He loved to speed and did not bother following speed limits. Many a times he was caught by the cops and speed radars, fined, but still he never bothered.

One day as he was driving at a very high speed as usual, he saw a cop following him. The cop overtook him finally, asked him to stop and checked his license. He then took out his pad and started writing, and then handed over the sheet of paper to Sanjay.

“How much was this one going to cost?” Sanjay said.

“Wait a minute” said the cop.

“What was this??? Some kind of joke? Certainly not a ticket”.

Sanjay began to read:
“Dear friend, I had a lovely daughter. She was six when she was killed by a car. You guessed it - a speeding driver’s car. A fine and three months in jail, and the culprit was free. Free to hug his three daughters. I only had one, and I’m going to have to wait until Heaven, before I can ever hug her again. A thousand times I’ve tried to forgive that man. A thousand times I thought I had. Maybe I did, but I need to do it again. Even now. Pray for me… And be careful, Sanjay, my son is
all I have left.”

Sanjay turned around only to see the cop’s car pull away and head down the road.
He watched until it disappeared. A full 15 minutes later, he too, pulled away and drove home, slowly, praying for forgiveness and hugging a surprised wife and kids when he arrived.

Life is precious. Handle it with care.
