My Life's Journey

My Life's Journey

I grew up in the middle-class family, I lived in the house that holds my Grandmother and father, dad, mom, and my sister, and dad was the only one in the family to earn and headed everything. 

Every relative of mine was rich with of course rich minds but poor hearts! They always offended us about our financial condition, never invited us in the parties or functions, when we used to ask dad about that, he obviously had no answer, the pain the struggle my father was going through was just something that bit me every second of my life, still, he managed to fulfill all our dreams, he managed to send me to the very good school in our area, where all the "Rais" to be specific would bump on the admission, I remember how they use to criticize me, how my teachers use to punish me for paying fees late and beat me to pay the damn fees late, how brutally education system sucked me up that time!! For each pencil or pen, I use to struggle and the Richie-rich of my schools always showed up with a new brand of stationery that would crave me so bad!! 


My dad owned one bike, and we four people use to go anywhere in that one and only bike till my standard 6th.

This was not enough, the destiny had other plans too, In my growing years of childhood, I fell from my bed and that hit my brain so hard that led to a problem in some of my neurons, as that time I cannot catch up things so easily, it would take a minute for me to count on some simple equation, etc, people even called me dumb and mad too, my mom was often called to school complaining that ' your child's brain is weak in comparison to other children'. My mom had put all her efforts behind me, took me to doctors, my medications were started and it took months for me to fully recover from it whatever I am today are the efforts of my mother that she put on me during my worst of days.


Dad's salary was just 6000/- per month and he was managing all, I was even beaten up once about my tored shoes, after struggling very hard from all this I decided to gave up my studies and further to help my dad in every possible way, I ended my 12th, didn't even waited for my results and started searching for jobs, my family burst over me about my decision, but I was very clear, Later I found a job which gave me 7000/- per month, I gave my best to dad and my family when I purchased my own phone out of my salary that moment was so priceless, but again bad luck never chose to leave me, I started feeling frustrated in my job, as low income and being humiliated internally by job corporates, I was really depressed about it and left my job and with my bad luck I left 3 of another job too very soon, I was even shortlisted as a model as looks helped me a little to come up with my situation, but they demanded 20,000/- for start up and again I was where I was. I pushed myself very bad and realized the real aim of my life that despite good heart, you also need money to survive, and decided that whatever I faced in my life I don't want my children to face the same! 


Today, I earn 20,000/- per month by doing a job indeed, which is obviously not enough, but a way to better than my past and every day I put every effort to give answers to all those Richie-rich studs! Today, I accept and love myself in ways I never did before and tried giving the same to my lovely family! 

My mother is proud of me, and every time she tells me she's proud of me, I feel like the happiest person in the earth, because I was able to put a smile on her face, women who mean everything to me and even today, she's my anchor and never fails to give me her daily dose of advice. 


I am still learning, so when you ask me to give advice, I feel like the 'Right advice' changes over a period of time- but the one thing that remains unchanged is the desire to do the right thing. So I'll say this- leave the advice to do the right thing, even if it isn't the easiest thing to do. When you look back at your life, that's what's going to matter the most. Doing the right thing." And I Know "That one day, I'll lift up the world too".
