life is Tough ! Is it ?

We complain , We grumble ,We protest against life for being tough on us !

Here is a man crippled with both the legs standing besides the road asking for help with small asking eyes . Many going past him without even giving look at him thinking him to be one, they usually on the streets and turned a blind eye on him .

It just happened to me that something stuck as i went past him . My heart said to stop and help him .

Not able to walk more he was just asking to drop him to the next bus stop . I picked him up and he started telling his story .

He had a small business of Key chain making. He used to make key chain . What ever he used get from that , some money he keeps for his family , some for the rent of the small Kholi and rest for the Raw materials . His days were going on like that when one day his young kid got sick and most of his money he got were being spent on his kid's treatment .After all his son is the lone support for his old age .Gradually his business saw a beerish path . He could get little help from anyone as he has no family except his wife and son who is ill .

Now his days were becoming longer to survive ,making it difficult for him to make his ends meet. Also his can not go to anyone and ask for any work as he is disabled ,everyone thought he has not got ability to do work of able bodied persons. So gradually his sales decreased , so also his income . His wife can not go for work as she has to look after her son .And he on crutches has to travel some 50 kms to the city and look for work.

One day he met a person who told him to help and he will give him some money to help him resurrect his business .He came all the way from his home to that helpful person( so called ) only to hear that , he can help him after 4 - 5 months . The disabled ( I hate to call him disabled but forgot his name ) requested him to give some 4 K for buying some raw materials.

But he was disappointed , so had to return empty handed . The person who had told to help the lead of out story didn't even bother to offer him the money for his travel back to his home .

He had a small room for which he had to pay the a hefty rent of Rs 500/month( for a poor guys its still a very big amount) .He has to pay that also or else his family will be on the road .

Something moved me so much that i went all the way to his home some 50 kms from my home . Dropped him and gave him some Rs 1000 so that he could save the roof for his family .

The look i got in returned brought tears in my eyes , and felt a lot of contentment . It was raining real hard that day while returning , but that did not bother me at all .

Here I will ask a question to us , do we still feel our life is tough ? Why are complaining that life is being harsher on us ? Do you feel that that person's life is in anyways better than us , who even being crippled , who's son is sick , who needs money immediately to keep the roof on top him intact ? He has left hope to resurrect his business one day ,he has not left hope to see his son to take the baton from him and make the business flourish .

Make your day happy by thanking everyone . Be happy and make other's happy .Do goodwill .
