How My Child Sees Me

Friday 30 July 2021

Once there was a drug addict. He had two sons, Anil and Sunil. One fine day, while he was intoxicated, he had a fight with his wife. As he was not in his senses, he stabbed his wife with sharp knife due to which his wife died. All this happened in front of his sons. The man was arrested and sentenced life imprisonment. Both of his sons ran away from home and started living their lives by doing some daily wage laborer's work.

Twenty years passed. Anil also grew up like his father. He also became a drug addict and was arrested many times due to his unsocial activities. Sunil became an entrepreneur. One family member known to them went near Anil and asked, "Do you know about your father? Still you also became a drug addict?" Anil replied, "I saw my father. He is responsible for the way I have grown up. I learned to become a drug addict from my father."

The family member quietly went from there, and asked the similar question to Sunil, "Do you know about your father? Still you did not become drug addict, instead became an entrepreneur?" Sunil said, "I have learned this lesson of life from my father only, for which I am very thankful to him. I learned to become a person, whom my child can see and take an inspiration that what he or she should be doing when he or she reaches my age. I want to become that father who can be a role model for their child."
