Story of Vignesh

Take some time to read this inspirational story of a person I know.

Once upon a time, there lived a crazy character. He used to trouble his parents very much as a kid. Very much indeed. He wasn't that great in academics in his school days but his teachers very well knew his potential and kept on intimating his parents especially his mother that he can do more. Why isn't he concentrating on academics. Who cares. Our hero simply enjoyed his moments. Playing with his friends. Wasting time like anything. One thing no one understood was. He was the only child. And also a huge generation gap with his parents. With whom will he share all his happiness and sorrows. Obviously his friends! So he always spent his time with his friends.

As time passed by, he was very much indifferent to his future. At 10th board exam as well he didn't perform that great a maneuver. It was decent though. At the same time, things weren't going well at home.  He felt a sense of insecurity. An urge to stand on his own leg. To change his perspective of life. After 10th, he started focusing on his academics. Started doing wonders. Midway, worst was happening in his life but he never felt or sensed that. He was very much ignorant about it. All his mind, body and soul were focused on one thing. Academics and academics. Nothing else. Let the world go to hell. It is at this very age that he started spending frugally. In order to save money, he walked kilometres while going to his coaching classes. He inculcated a passion to read novels around the same time. In order to make good use of time, he used to read the books while travelling, walking, etc. He got to know what each second meant! Diminished they look bleak. But once cumulated, they prove to be costly!. He was very jovial with his friends. They were his life! With whom else will he share his pain and joy. Books were his first love. Why? The reason is twofold. First and foremost he loved to enact. So reading character descriptions which were detailed. Simply made him empathise with them and he used to be the characters. Second. They were inspirational to him. Every character in a book had something to teach him. He was very much interested in modern history. World leaders inspired him. They were indirectly telling him. What you are going through in your life is nothing. Just forget it. Come forward.  You can do it and you will do it. And he did it! With great scores and rank he graduated from the school. The school played a huge roll in educating this person with so much discipline. A thing which will be a weapon for this man from now on.

He joined a very reputed college. He made great friends. At the same time. He had a difficult life in the background. Very very bad life. But that didn't dampen his spirits. He kept on working hard. Day in and day out. Who cares about the problems. Thinking about problem is the root problem. Kill it! Rest will follow. He had a great respect and love for his friends. For obvious reasons. He came across one of the books considered to be the best literature in the world. That changed his perspective of life all together. Struggling very badly in life. He understood and felt that the only way to happiness was to sacrifice yourself for others. He was very helpful to anyone. Wholeheartedly he would help them. Serve them as if they were his own. And yes! They were his own. No doubts about that. Years passed on. Friends were everything to him. He shared his pain and sorrows with few of them whom he considered the greatest of all. Lucky to have such people around. Such was his life that he lived in extremes. Extreme of extremes. He struggled so much that he had to struggle badly for food. He roamed streets after streets. No matter what. Nothing would dampen his spirits. He have great people around and he needs to serve them. Love all around him. That is the ultimate happiness of life isn't it.

When things were going as mentioned above. Suddenly one day happiness started coming to him like an atom bomb explosion. He felt so damn emotional.

Obviously he would feel so right. He took a moment and just thought about his life and thought how learning from others so much he had to teach others. Now its time for others to learn few things from him.
