Yesterday,at around 5:30 pm in the evening i went to Aluva railway station to receive my uncle who was coming from Bangalore.it was On reaching there i came to know that the train was late by two hours.I was just walking around the station looking at the platform,shops,counters when i noticed one small boy sitting on the floor and reading a book.I went near him and asked what he was reading.He looked at me anxiously and replied "Science".On hearing this i smiled and asked in which class he was studying.He replied that he was in 5th standard and his exams are going on.He lived in a small hut where there was no electricity connection.His mother had died 4yrs back and his father was a drunkard who used to come late in the night daily. They had a tea shop which was the only source of income for the family.I felt really pity on him seeing him studying under the lights of railway station.
How many of us truly realize that God has given us so much in our life.Today we are pursuing a post graduation in management where we sit in air conditioned classrooms and stay in well furnished hostel rooms .We have been provided with all the facilities from our chidhood to present life stage by our parents .But are we doing full justice to them.Despite having all the amenities and facilities we never try to give our best because we are always engaged in enjoyment and smart lifestyle.We are fortunate to have a fulfilling and satisfactory life but we won't realize it unless it slips from our hands.We should take the full use of opportunities which are available to us in order to prosper and succeed.Wherever we go we should try to give our 100% dedication to our work because it is very necessary to be true to ourself.
