Sometimes you think you are the one who is getting fucked everyday and your life is in complete mess.Then you meet with someone whose life is not only fucked up more than yours but he/she has to fight everyday with death to live.And you realize that you are blessed to have a life that you were cursing few minutes ago.
Last month as i went for an interview in Mumbai and waiting outside,a person came to me and started talking to me.He told me that his daughter was inside and having her technical round going on.He asked me about my college and the courses i opted after college.I told him that i was already placed in some other MNC and came for that interview only to accompany a friend of mine from Kolkata.
He told that his daughter did not get a job in last one year and never stopped trying.Our chit chat was going normal till then when he suddenly said that his daughter has diabetes.She was born with type 1 diabetes and she needs insulin thirce a day.Her father was telling me that the only reason he wanted her daughter to get the job so that she could become independent and not be dependent on anyone for her expenses.I started praying for her as she was battling with the interviewers.
After the rounds got over, her father introduced her to me.The only thing i could say was "Good luck,you will get the job".She smiled and wished me the same.
Later her father called me and told that she got the job.I was happy from inside.The happiness was more because a close friend of mine whom i accompanied also cleared the interview.I will write about that in my next post.But that girl inspired me in more than one way.She is an inspiration to all i guess.
Hats off to you girl,
For the courage you have shown,
For the hardwork you have done,
For lighting up the soul of many who have met you before,
I was broken with little issues of mine,
Like many I was hopeless and thought things would go hard
But your character affected me in more than one way,
I cannot thank you for the change you brought in me,
Cause my words wont be able to soothe the pain you have.
Cause my words wont be able to soothe the pain you have.
When you were inside the room,
Fighting with the interviewers for the job,
For a moment you might have thought,
That your failure would affect your father,
Believe me girl you were right,
Your failure would have affected your father,
He would have hugged you more tightly,
He would have kissed your pain more passionately,
Cause your existence in this world is everything to your father.
We might not have talked for hours,
We might not know each other for long,
But being a stranger, you have taught me,
How to deal with pain and still smile,
I prayed for you so that you get the job,
Not because that job would measure your credibility,
But because people like you should be reawarded,
And then our eyes met for the first time,
You might have felt awkward being stared by a stranger,
What a shameless i am as i admit that i was staring at you,
Cause your eyes were radiating positive rays and body was radiating positive vibes.
Then few words we spoke and then we wished each other,
Had the venue not been an interview location,
I would have touched your feet happily,
You have kicked every obstacle that came in front of you,
You have not let your fathers hope getting smashed,
You have survived each day and scared death to come,
People like you make this world a better place,
People like you are an inspiration for many,
I wish you all the luck for your battle with life,
Hats off to you girl,
I cannot thank you for the change you brought in me,
Cause my words wont be able to soothe the pain you have.
Cause my words wont be able to soothe the pain you have.
Hats off to the spirit (y)
