A Truck Message That Really Made Me Think on the Road Today

Assalam-o-Alaikum @everyone friends, greetings to all from @theindicators
I hope all of you are fine and doing good in your lives. I’m also perfectly fine, and today I want to share a picture I saw on the road. Honestly, it was not just a picture… it felt like the truck was giving me a full lecture while moving.

Everyone knows about Pakistani truck art, but some trucks are less “art” and more “philosophy on wheels.” Today I read these lines on the back of one truck:

“Don’t always trust the truth of people.
My friend already ate his food, but this one stays thirsty.”

Now trust me, these lines were serious, funny, a bit spicy, and also a little heartbreaking.
The truck driver basically said that everything in life isn’t true, not every person is real either. And that line about “my friend ate already and this one stays thirsty”… man, that one hit me. I felt like even the truck was complaining about life more honestly than most people do.

The whole truck was shaking like it was trying to tell me, “Bro, life is tough but we still move forward—with some humor.”

And honestly, I felt like all of us humans are a bit like these trucks too—colorful from the outside, a little broken from the inside, carrying some deep one-line story on our back that explains our whole life without even trying.

In the end, I’ll just say this:
Sometimes random lines on the back of a truck teach you more than all the motivational quotes on the internet
