Life

This boy,i know him.When i look at him i can relate him not with the green surrounded by but with that far faded nature.
One nice morning i caught him walking down this path.He was concentrating on something out of this world,may be nothing.Negative,i know him.He was thinking of things what the mankind had to start thinking from the very dawn of their existence,living.Yes livelihood what he was thinking of.He was just 6.He lost his father when he was a baby of 2.Thats horrible,the accident i heard of what took away his father.He got a brother 6 years older.His mother works for household chores on daily income basis.This boy is now at 7,yet started looking for job to manage daily foods.Somehow he managed a job in a bicycle workshop for 500 taka monthly.He wakes when i am sleeping deep at the very morning.He starts works and continues till dusk.This boy now can be in school or on ground playing with other kids.But he can't,cruel reality takes away his childhood,his happiness.His elder brother is a tempo helper.Two brothers and their mom leave no stone unturned to make their lives easier.But nothing changes.Things are going same.They still have inadequate rice on their plates.Their roof still allows water inside when it's raining.Their clothes are still dirty.Their legs still have no shoes.And their struggle continues.No one knows its ending.

       When depression grabs me,when i get a lot of problems banging my head i think of this boy.God could have given me his life.But now i am in a better place.

When we get a problem,life seems hard we should think there must be some one who gets worse life.This thinking may give us satisfaction and lead a happy life.

Don't look down upon the poor,be thankful to God and have a happy life.
