Sigh...

I came to library at 9 today only to be greeted by a sight of young Indian boy cleaning the glass door of the library enterance. He looked about 12 or 13 years of age and he flashed me one of the sweetest smile in the world which i promptly returned.

The sight keep disturbing my mind every now and then until now. I really wishing there is something i could do to help him. that kid ought to be in school, to mingle and have fun with his peers and enjoy his childhood instead of slogging himself cleaning rubbish in the university.

So many Indian kids need help out there. I knew of this friend of mine who became friends with the cleaner lady at his office, learnt about her two teenage kids and sort of adopted them, though they still stay in their mother's place, this man takes care of them with his wife, made sure they studied well, right now, one is into shipping business in US and another is in college. I saw the college boy last week. I salute the guy who took care of them.

At least he managed to save two kids from ruining their lives. It really hurts me badly everytime i see these Indian ladies cleaning the bathrooms and toilet, mopping the floor and just going on with their lives. And it hurt me even more to see the young boy today. I can't wait to finish this course, get back a job and contribute back to my society.
