Story7: Nature Reciprocates

It was 2007 a memorable year that left a deep impression on my mind. I was filled with mixed emotions. It was emotions of happiness and emotions of fear. I got a job in a small company without much effort. I thought life was easy. The testimony that I got ahead in time made me overwrite my perception. Life is full struggle. This is a single side if most of you don’t agree with me. I hide the truth from everybody because I knew that people would envy me. I was right. One day I was on the way to the office. I met the girl who was my classmate. When I told her that I got a job, her facial expression depicted that she was envy. My classmates looked at me with expectation but they never asked me for help. Some asked but I could not provide any type of help. I should be diplomatic, a quality I lack.

It was year 2010 a horrific year that I would never forget. I would love to forget this period but it seems that it would be erased from my brain after my death. I was jobless. It was my mistake. I still regret this decision. Everybody had a job. Some were switching companies. Some were well settled in life. Some has foreign trips. It seemed that everybody was happy except me. It was the beginning of the bad patch which is still continuing. Only God knows when and how it is going to end. I remember that I emailed a dozen of classmates and waited for the reply. Time and tides waits for none. I started checking my e-mails a couple of times in a day. No reply. The doors of hope were closing. The proverb stating that if God closes one he opens many seemed false. It’s my perception. I called some of them but instead of helping they advised me to do certain things. Most of them knew that I was jobless. I remember an incident. I went for an interview. I cleared the first round. The second round would commence after recess. I met three classmates. They told me that if they knew what I was going through they would help me certainly. I had no words because I thought why Ihad not broadcasted my situation on television, newspaper or radio. Some told me they have forwarded my resume to their heads. I started doubted myself. The behavior of people towards me changed. I was getting familiar with the real world. All this went for a couple of years. More obstacles were waiting to welcome me. Problems come in flock.

Nature Reciprocates. Once I was happy and rests were facing the vast tensions of life. It’s my conception. Now I can understand what they were going through. They never asked me for help. Now it was vice versa.
