A few days back, my mom was having a \"diwan\" delivered home. And that afternoon for about 2 hours constantly my mom received calls from the delivery \"boy\" regarding the address of our house. I was surprised as to why he was taking so much time as he was in the vicinity of my place. Just as I was to leave to help that guy get home, I find an old man at the door step informing that the parcel had been brought. <\/p>
That's when things took a turn in my head. In the scorching heat of April this man, about 65 years, was on his rickshaw pulling such load for making a menial living! I had no idea of how to help him. And while all of us enjoy the benefits of a capable GPS, why did he not have access to it? <\/p>
And worse, for all the effort he puts, his task is mundane.. How much would he make for a living!!! Its fantastic that we have evolved so much in terms of technology, and yet we can't penetrate that to the people who are in dire need of it...<\/p>
Today, my mom was getting rid of the old newspapers stacked for over a month and I was making small talk with the \"raddiwala\".. who is again an old lady! So, I ask her what she does with all the paper that she buys from us and she explains. My curiosity kicks in and I ask her how does she carry the gunny bag she stuffed all our paper in? She plainly said that she walks till the shop to sell them... Whoa? I ask her why doesn't she take a ride on autorickshaw. She smiles and says that way nothing would be left for her to take back home. <\/p>
Out of curiosity, I ask her, how much she makes out of this, and here comes the shock. If she buys a kilogram of paper from us at Rs.10, she gets about a rupee per kilogram from the paper mills. I become silent, not knowing what to say.. and she keeps talking of her family that comprises of her widowed daughter with two children and her husband. She says she wouldn't be working if not for the future of her young grand kids. Jeez... could someones life be this helpless? And the best part no where I hear regret nor does she complain of her fate. <\/p>
While these are a few recent instances, they trigger a lot of emotions. Someone above the age of 60, as per government regulations should retire. <\/p>
Still, out there are many earning bread and butter for their family. Why is that? They could never save enough. They are human too. They have desires they wish to materialize into reality. Will it ever happen? On the other end is the child labor scenario.. Will a child come out of such hostile situations unbroken. Or will he simply leap his childhood and grow up with onerous tasks. What kind of unhealthy situations are thousands of families facing today? <\/p>
As I write this, I am not trying to fight for their cases, there is no point in gathering sympathy or empathy virtually. If there needs to be change, it has to happen on ground and real time! There are millions of such lives listed as random numbers on the internet, in government records and books.. But, behind each of those statistics lie lives of so many people who have lost hope. I wonder will they ever have the courage to dream? And hope to wish that dreams come true... It bothers me.. and it does bother a lot more other people! <\/p>
I believe that this country is indeed on the path to progress but, I think its our responsibility to grow together and not at the cost of others. I have been a part of few initiatives that are concerned with child development. And now I am beginning to think if childhood needs betterment then parentage needs repair. While we try to fix children and give them hope from the outside, even their parent support system needs to be built. This I believe will only happen in collaborative development. <\/p>
Poverty in monetary conditions is yet another thing. If only everyone could have dignity and the power of choice, the world would be a better place! I hope the day my life comes to end I do something that adds meaning to at least a few peoples life.. Its not my compassion for the poor.. I think its my responsibility as the young generation! And I am sure that we will all together come up with means for inclusive development.... And I only write this to rekindle the flame of good will in all our hearts.. and as reminder of the humongous task that lies ahead us. <\/p>"}]
I paused to stand and watch a man who had come to the road's divide. <\/p>
My wonder soared as I watched his stare slowly shift from side to side. <\/p>
He stood as if not noticing that many passed him by. <\/p>
They moved without a second glance down the road most travelled by. <\/p>
Then as I watched he stepped full stride toward the path of lesser wear,<\/p>
And soon he vanished from my view round a bend into the snare.<\/p>
I soon, like him, stood centre road, faced with that daunting choice. <\/p>
My gaze down his road, causing fear, I quenched my inner voice.<\/p>
The way his hands move across the paint <\/p>
Makes me vow That ,<\/p>
I wish I had such talent to play<\/p>
He smiles Like the slow breeze <\/p>
Makes me fall in love <\/p>
His polite gestures ... Like the green saplings sprouting <\/p>
Alas ! I deluge that in<\/p>
But all those moments with the CA team will make you weep as you depart <\/p>
All I ever wish is your success<\/p>
May god bless you with bliss<\/p>
Here<\/p>
May you keep flourishing ! <\/p>
For an anonymous who inspired !!<\/p>"}]
Inspiration can come to us from within and sometimes from the outside. Some of us watch movies, listen to music or read books for some inspiration. But our generation prefers everything short, right? <\/p>
So, instead of spending hours reading that book ( exception : bibliophiles), we would prefer to watch movies instead. Here is a list of a few inspiring movies that we as students can watch for some serious inspiration.<\/p>"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1469257864228","data":"

\u201cBut papa, I want to be a writer\u201d, the 15 year old reasoned\u2026<\/p>
\u201cGood! Just make it a hobby\u201d,<\/p>
The father cut him short.<\/p>
Years passed and his love for words never waned. Only his soul did.<\/p>
His diary was awash with endless thoughts. Diaries were filled but the void in his heart remained empty. The stories he wished to tell, were confined to the realms of his heart. Not a soul to share with!<\/p>
His parents were brimming with happiness- their 21 year old had made them proud with a well paying job. His heart was content seeing his parents overjoyed. <\/p>
It was all for my own good, he agreed.<\/p>
21 years spent for a 2 page resume, his heart sighed!<\/p>
The writer in him died.<\/p>

Our entry into an engineering college may not teach us how to get a job but it will surely teach us about life. Life here is quite different from what they show in movies. But yes, years spent in college will surely alter your personality. You will not be the same guy who set foot on the first day of college. Here are some memes that will surely ring a bell.<\/p>

So lets talk it all honest. If you ask me, or if you ask any other girl, What is the most fascinating topic all the time? Love and Boys. <\/p>
Yes, this is it. We either bitch about you, or write songs for you. Either ways you guys are always on our minds 24\/7.<\/p>
Or we just complain sitting here all day saying \u201cAll guys are just the same\u201d. Back in our heads, we know that\u2019s just not true. On a serious note, no matter how independent we are, or how bold we are, nothing matches to the compassion you guys give us. <\/p>
Not all of us admit, But truly Life would be silly, pointless and boring without you guys around. Life starts with fathers, then Male best friends, Boy friends, crushes , One big true love and Oh what not. You guys get a big chunk of our lives. <\/p>
This article is dedicated to you! A tribute to all nice guys, that go unnoticed, for all the nice guys who are overlooked, underestimated, and unappreciated, for all the nice guys who are manipulated, misled, and unjustly abandoned, this is for you.<\/p>
\nGuys are those beautiful people who tenderly take care of you, when you are on your mood swings. Who never complain when you go off on little things. We girls are twisted puzzles and they deal with us with lot of patience. Because thats how much we mean to them. Yeah, they do complain we are over-dramatic at times. <\/p>
But, aren\u2019t they the ones who take all our moods? Expecting just some attention and care in return. Its always them who come to compromise after you fight, The ones that stay up all night pleading you after the fight even if they aren\u2019t wrong. <\/p>
Because you mean to them more than their ego. Who carry your shopping bags, Who hold open doors. Those who gift you just to see you smile. Who insist on paying your shopping bills. I can never imagine girls doing that ( I mean our expressions are different, We can\u2019t be as patient as them). Not all Guys are the same. <\/p>
We still see some amazing men around us. Can you imagine your life without your male best friend, that\u2019s always got your back? That\u2019s going to pick your calls even when it is 3\u2019AM. Just to hear you let your frustration out.\nHere\u2019s to All those men who are very beautiful on the inside. <\/p>
To all the guys who have been deprived of what they truly deserved and never complained. Who put all emotions to themselves. <\/p>
I understand feeling as small and as insignificant as humanly possible. And how it can actually possibly ache you in places you didn\u2019t know you had inside you. No matter how many new haircuts you get, Or gyms you join, Or how much you pretend you are happy without her, even if she left you for no reason.<\/p>
You just lay down in your bed thinking what you would have possibly done wrong, but never complain. Hats off to you! we never give you people much credit, it's always about us women, Our issues, our bravery. <\/p>
But this world would be such a worthless place without you all in it. So let me remind you guys how worthy you are. Thanks for being this amazing, thanks for all those therapy sessions when we are mad. Thanks for saving our secrets safer than a locker, thanks for ordering our favorite food even before we ask you guys to. All these little things boost us up. Means a lot.\n\n<\/p>
