The boy I am talking about was in his early teenage and he lived in a small middle class family in a village. His village was so quite, calm and greenery to live a peaceful life. Like any other middle class family in India around a decade back, his home also was a combined family and all his relatives and everyone lived in the same home. Even with the financial limitations, his middle class environment provided him everything that is necessity in his life like education, dresses, good food etc.. But anything beyond necessity was just a hidden whisper in his mind that vanish very soon...
This small boy I know had the habit of dreaming an optimistic future. After all that is something he could do with out paying money. The surprising thing was that even his dreams know about his financial limitation.. the dreams were not much lavish.. his dreams were about having a more comfortable life.. something like building a small good house for them.. and buying a small car for their parents.. he had never even dreamt about being very lavish...
Days are passed.. months passed and years passed.. The boy studied hard to accomplish his dreams.. he has grown up now.. He has got a good job which earn a reasonable and good amount of money monthly..
Now his dreams were not much far from reality... He is in a position to realize his dream now. But it is then he realized that, he had lost so much during these years... The dream of the small boy, did not have much value now... He lost his parents for ever during these years.. His relatives are not living together in a combined family anymore.. they are all separated into different houses.. he is living alone with out any one's care and affection.. and his dreams does not have much values anymore..
Now he knows that is life.. Life is always been this way.. When you gain something, you loose equally or something more than it.. Life maintain an equilibrium...!!
