The struggle and journey of Santa

Santa use to live with her parents who had a very low source of income. They had to rely on their daily hard earned money through the labour work that they were into. Santa had a younger brother who she would take care when her parents went out to work. 

One Mr and Mrs Verma, at whose home Santa's mother, Bina worked as a maid when they came to know that Santa had to miss her school to take care of her brother while her mother was at work. Mrs Verma told Bina to bring her son along with her to work so that Santa can go to school.

She wanted to study like any other child and go to school. Now that Santa was about to go to school, her mother did some part time work and took care of the children.

Santa was a very bright student. As she continued her studies one class after another every year she came out with flying colours. 

When she took her tenth boards her school teachers also helped her with her books and other materials. All these while Mrs.Verma used to sponsor Santa's education. She even attended the parent's teacher's meeting alond with Bina, Santa's mother.

After her tenth boards, Santa took the science stream because she was interested in becoming a doctor and Mrs.Verma supported her decision and provided her with whatever books she needed.She took admission in another school and continued her 11th and 12th. Santa never took any tuitions and she always studied on her own whatever guidance she got was from Mr. and Mrs.Verma. They even thought that she didnt actually require to go for tuition whatever was taught at school she seriously took that and continued her studies regularly, thats the reason she was well upto mark in all her subjects. Whatever doubts she had, she would clarify in school and the teachers were very impressed with her. She had set an example that one can even do well in his or her class and with all subjects without taking any tuition which otherwise is nothing but some extra expences in the sense for those who cannot afford to pay the extra amount on tuitions. And that actually is not required if a student is regular in class and does all task seriously. Even if Mrs.Verma could have sponsored her tuition even she thought if there is no need for her since she was doing exceptionally well they rather provider her with a laptop and a phone that would help her in studies.

Santa was not only good at studies but a very creative person. She was fantastic in arts and painting. Participated in few competition and won prizes and certificates. As s child she participated in sports and also won prizes during the annual sports but that was only for fun. 

She aimed high to become a Lawyer and the Vermas saw her quest for knowledge and hence offered to help her in studies.

Santa completed her college and applied for the University. She wanted to pursue Law .Took admission in LLB in Delhi.

Since she was residing in Bhopal.She now had to stay on a hostel in Delhi. The Vermas having being taken her responsibilities, also accompanied her to Delhi along with her mother to get her settle down at a hostel there. Santa was more than thankful to them and she was already considered by them as a daughter. But at the back of her mind she had high regards for them in the way they stood by her side all through. And it was on her part to do her best and achieve success.

Santa graduated her Law degree and she then got attached to a firm and started working.Her mother and the Vermas were more than happy now as she started working.

Later she found a suitable boy as her partner. The married and settled down in life.Her mother also stayed with her as she had no one else other than the Vermas and now she had three families, her own, the Vermas and her in - laws who also were very good and considered her no less than a daughter.

Santa was a responsible daughter because she had seen the struggle of her mother, she understood the importance of life and the journey fron a very young age, the constant support from the Vermas had been her biggest pillar of strength.And then the in-laws who accepted and understood her were yet another pillar of strength. 

Her incredible journey is a lesson in itself.
