In this world lives diversity of people with respect to culture, religion, social status, economic status and so on. We always aspire to get what we do not have but there are people who do not have the basic amenities to live life.
My mother is a government teacher in a village Kansya near Jaipur. During winters, when the temperature falls less than 10 degrees, she used to witness students coming without sweaters shivering in the biting cold. The students’ attendance used to fall off with increasing cold. My mother shared this concern with us. She first talked to the parents of children to insist their kids to wear sweater. But the reason behind not wearing a sweater was not because they don’t want to but because they didn’t have one to wear. Realizing this, my mother stopped asking children to wear sweater. But then we realized, what if those people can’t buy sweaters. We are capable enough to buy them the sweaters. My mother and I collected funds from our friends and contributed some on our behalf and eventually, every student of Kansya didn’t bunk school because of cold. The immense satisfaction that this small act gave us cannot be expressed in words. It taught me to help others if I have the capability to do so because who knows that I am actually making an impact
