The road was flooded. He was merely 7 years old. He wanted to be on the other side of that flooded road. He searched for the options. Short legs could not jump high and he was on his school dress, dark blue pant and sky blue shirt. May be something was going on in that little brain, when he moved forward to take a jump. However, when he was sure, his legs were not longer enough to cross it, he backed himself. He tried the other way, but he was against in spoiling his school shoes. Then only, his eyes fell on some stones placed over there for the support. Slowly and carefully, he stepped on it and crossed it. His shoes were little bit dirty but he pulled out his hanky from his pocket, wiped it out and marched towards his school alone.
Same was the flooded road, when another boy of about same age came over there in an interval of about one minute. Now I was interested on how he will cross it. He was also going to school in his best dress possible, green pant and white shirt. He looked tidy with a tie and a hanky hanging near his pocket. This kid however, didn’t have to use his brain. May be he was even unaware about the road because he was with his mother. At once, his mom carried him and crossed the road
It was a scene that had a long lasting impression in my brain. A scene that made me think and analyse about the both kids. In fact, its a normal story about the differences and struggle between the social classes. The first one is from a lower class family, reads in a government school and second one is from a medium class and reads in a private school. Of course, the second kid has a bright future, he doesn’t have to struggle a lot in life because of his family. He has some sort of things that has been inherited. The first kid will have to struggle more comparatively. However, he will learn a lot about the struggle and hardships. He will learn to make the best possible solution among the options. He is free to choose for himself and learn from the mistakes.
May be the differences among the people has made the living on this earth more beautiful. I wish bright future for both the kids.
good one...
ReplyDeleteWonderful piece of thoughts. There are lot of differences in our society.
ReplyDeleteयो कुरा साँचो हो कि, यदी कोही सरकारी स्कुल मा पढ्छ र कोही निजी स्कुल मा पढ्छ भने, त्यहाँ समाज मात्र होइन घर देखि नै भिन्नता सुरु हुन्छ ! जति नै वर्ष को होस्, सरकारी स्कुल मा पढ्ने बच्चाहरुलाई प्राय: कमै अभिभावकहरु स्कुल सम्म पुर्याउन र लिन जान्छन् त्यसको ठिक उल्टो, निजी मा पढ्ने बच्चाहरु को अभिभावक सँधै स्कुल पुर्याउने ल्याउने गर्छन् ।
त्यसबाहेक, होमवर्क गराउने, होमवर्क गरेको हेर्ने नहेर्ने, यी यावत कुराहरु मा फरक हुन्छ सरकारी र निजी स्कुल मा पढाउने या भनौँ पढिने घर मा !
मलाई लाग्छ मान्छेहरु, आफ्नो आर्थिक स्थिति को कारण देखाएर उम्कने गरेका छन् । जस्तो कि, सरकारी मा पढ्ने विपन्न वर्गहरु नै हुन्छन् । त्यती भइकन पनि घरका अभिभावक ले साना नानी भए, स्कुल पुर्याउने, ल्याउने, होमवर्क गरेको - नगरेको हेर्ने गरिदिने भए, सरकारी मै पढेपनि, उ निजी स्कुल का विद्यार्थीसँग प्रतिस्पर्धा राख्ने क्षमता राख्दछ । तर हाम्रो ससमाज, घर नै यस्तो छ कि, सरकारी मा पढाएपछि केही वास्ता नै नराख्ने ! तर निजी स्कुल मा पढाउनेहरु ले, बच्चाहरु एक एक विवरण राखिरहेका हुन्छन् ।
दोष कसलाई दिने थाहा छैन तर आर्थिक कारण देखाएरै अभिभावकहरु उम्किनु चाँहि मिल्दैन भन्ने मेरो बिचार छ !
त्यसबाहेक, माथि को घटनालाई हेर्ने तरिका मलाई निकै राम्रो लाग्यो ! यो सत्य हो, व्यवहारिक जिवन मा, त्यो पहिले बाटो काट्ने केटा नै सफल हुनेछ, दोस्रो भन्दा !!!

भिन्नता socioeconomic status को मात्र हैन भिन्नता सोच,समज र बुझाईको हो. म गर्वका साथ भन्छु मैले सरकारी school पढेको हु. मैले पनि ठाउँ ठाउँ मा schooling ले पर्ने भिन्नता महसुस गरेको छु. तर पनि life भनेको नै struggle त हो नि जत्ति आफु जुदिन्छ तात्ति नै बलियो भइन्छ.
ReplyDeleteA nice post....... कुरा बुझ्न धेरै टाडा जानु पर्दैन कैलेकाही वरपरका साना गतिवीदिले नै धेरै कुरा सिकाउछन्.
तर म निश्चित चाँहि केमा छु भने संसारमा जति पनि सफल मानिसहरू जन्मे, र छन् ती गरिबीको डरलाग्दो खाडलबाट उकाशिएकाहरू थिए र हुन् ।
ReplyDeleteLife without struggle can never the perfect one!
