The Silent worker

We often gossip on the rich & famous about what they recently tweeted, whom they are dating lately and blah blah. We seldom talk about commoners who are not that fortunate.About people who question their fate everyday when they wake up and realize that it was not a bad dream but the hard truth.It's actually they who need our attention, our concern and much more.But the world is full of irony.

There is person I have immense respect for. For his tolerance, persistence and the lively spirit within him.He's retired now.Although he keeps himself occupied with some other work.Keeps him going.His wife, met an accident around five years ago.She was the only person in that bus to get severely injured.She has been on the bed since.Sometimes we cannot explain why bad things happen to us. And others simply can never feel what we feel when we are hurt.But everything happens for a reason.We, as humans are too dumb to understand the big picture.Sometimes it happens so that we can learn a lesson.Sometimes , to test your strength.Most times, you cannot decode why.But that does not mean it happened in vain.Stop looking for that answer.That will come to you when the time is right.You should do your karma without expectations.And why do you say there is no ray of hope? If you think about it, the ray of hope is an entity which comes into existence from our own actions.It's like a reaction. You can always create one because without it, life becomes dull.

For the last five years, he has looked after her.He has comforted her like a mother does to her newly born child.Cleaning her everyday, making her sit on the wheel-chair, moving her back to the bed every night.It takes immense will power to do this everyday for such a long time.I just cannot imagine someone so strong at heart.This was no one's fault.But often they break into tears. She too, has been so strong since. She tries to do all that she can. She has got the kitchen slab lowered so that she can cook from her wheel-chair.She moves here and there cleaning the house.When he used to go to office, she would even polish his shoes sitting on the wheel chair. It's amazing to see someone do all this sitting on the wheel chair.

For him I want to say, be firm.That's what your name means.For both of you, I have immense respect.We all are with you in this, you are not alone.This is to all such silent workers.Respect.
