The Power of Courage !

Sharing some thoughts over courage which I read in one of the book - Discussions on Youth,

"As long as we're alive, we'll face all kinds of problems, but no matter what happens, we simply have to live with courage and press on, aiming always towards the future. No one can escape the realities of dialy life. We have to deal with life and its problems. Young people have their own problems, just as adults have their. Life and the world live in are like a storm-tossed sea; we have to make our way through it, buffeted by different kinds of experiences. There is no other way. This is part of our inescapable destiny as human beings.
Everyone has their own hopes and dreams, their own way of life, their own ideals, their own joys, their own sufferings, their own pain and their own grief."

No matter what happens, however we have to get on with life. We have to keep moving. working towards realising our ideals and dreams...

With this would like to share some live examples -

Two years back, when i use to travel in the local train, I met a old lady - she was around 75 years old or more than that... She use to travel from Balabgarh to ChandniChowk each day.. She knew various kind of hand embroidery.. and use to work with a export house.. She has no complaints from life, was happily enjoying her work...

A old man I know, who is physically challenged(Blind) - lost his eyes in an accident, when he was around 40yr old. He has three sons - two of them are well off and third one is mentally unstable.. The elder two son's are busy in their life and have left this old man from last 50 years... However the younger one who is mentally unstable stays with him and create one or the other problem.. Though this old man has never cried, has been working from last 40 years, earned a good amount, on which now his youngest son is living his life...
