The Priceless

Human beings, the wisest creature of the Almighty most often do mistakes and it's quite normal as the mistakes are made to learn something valuables. But if someone makes mistakes again and again not trying to rectify the mistakes, then it is in vain. The story revolves around such a Selfless character whose sacrifice was of great value for others.

.It was dawn and  Padma woke up earlier  to complete the daily household works. While she was sweeping the verandah, she found one fifty rupee coin which was indeed proved priceless for her. But how can such a small coin of lower value be of great help for somebody?

After completing all her works, Padma bought a postcard with that coin. She shared all her grief in that letter and posted it to her husband who was an auto driver. Just one thing she requested to do -to take her children to a city where they can educate their children and make their career. Her husband was no good person . He asked her to bring five thousand rupees, some 50 kg rice, and other grocery items with her while coming to Bhubaneswar. But when the Padma told the demanded amount to her parents, they didn't agree with it. Rather they suggested not to go to that cruel person as he might torture her more and more. But it was not so difficult for the Padma to bear her husband's tortures than to listen to the bitter talks of her parents and the neighbors. She became obstinate enough to go near her husband for the sake of her children's future .

Amidst the tussle ,She moved on along with her three children to Bhubaneswar. She arranged some money by selling her only gold chain in the last time as it seemed the last resort to her. How much she could tolerate the bad behaviors of her brothers, their wives there? She completes all the household works properly thinking that they might provide something to eat to her children but they don't do that most often. So she decided to leave that place finally. And it was really a Priceless gift from her side for her children to which they should feel obliged forever.
