true story

It's been an exciting month, almost stepping into a new life and basking in a new hope.

My mom and I were on the phone this morning and she narrated how so many children in india do not get the chance to study even after scoring more than average grades just because they can't afford it. Recently, she found an article in the newspaper about a village boy who wants to study English Literature. His family cant pay for his education because they are weavers by profession and so poor that the aspiring English Literature scholar is malnourished. My parents contacted them and hopefully he will get his degree. It's amazing how much people struggle to get their dreams.

Now, while surfing the internet, I got this video clip- see this and you will know the struggle and the effort so many people undergo and how fortunate the rest of us are who are sitting back at home enjoying weekends and watching this on the net.
