Here I see many white Canadians working from a young age with small children. Big industrialist parents are delivering newspapers from house to house with their children. Don’t go far. One of our fathers is Savjibhai Dholakia, a neighboring country in India. He is a diamond merchant. The owner of twelve thousand crores of rupees.
He felt the need to teach his son the reality of life. The son should understand the meaning of money and life. He did it in a strange way. One day he called his 27-year-old son Draviya and said, “Now find a job in your own capacity.” You have to live with your own earnings. Spend a few months. You won’t get a single penny from me in these few months. You can’t use my name anywhere. Wanted to burn the son to make gold.
The struggle of Draviya Dholakia begins. After giving interviews at different places, Draviya was rejected from a total of 60 places. Finally he got a job as a salesman in a shoe store. After that, Dravia’s got a job of Rs 4,000 in McDonald’s. Couldn’t do with this money. He takes a job at a call center at night. after spend the rent of the house only 40 rupees remained for food. He can eat all day long with that. Some days had to spend the day eating bread and sweets. Father’s heart did not melt even after seeing this. Eventually she got a job at a cake bakery and was getting pretty good at it. But a customer recognized him and after that the news went viral. Dad realized how important it is to learn to struggle in life.
The father wanted to turn his son into a diamond by burning him with the fire of work and under the pressure of lack because he himself grew up from childhood by working hard. Finally Draviya Dholakia joined her father’s business. He is very grateful to his father. Now he knows the value of money, the value of care. He knows how hard common people work to survive. I know of a man in our country. Work and studies have continued since childhood. He went to school during the day and worked at night. Because he had to look after the family. Siblings had to be raised and he himself became a man. In Canada, he now holds a high-level government job. He is a very confident person.
Father was a science teacher in Jessore district school. At the same time he was in charge of boys’ scouting. I remember the students coming to my father to discuss what they would learn during scouting week. I used to see my older brother and his classmates going around the streets with shoeshine and brushes during Scout week, painting people’s shoes. Kodin is cleaning the dirt floor of DC’s house. They are making pickles and chanachur at home and selling them on the street. I remember a big man brought the same amount of money to the father to deposit to the father, which was to be spent on Jamboree, because he was honored to do these things for his son. The father had a lot of trouble that day, because he could not explain the meaning of hard work to the boy. The father did not take the boy’s money. Because he did not earn the money. They went to Khulna for Jamburi and held a week-long rally at Jessore Stadium. I remember the happy faces of the boys.
We used to hide our parents, eat nakul dana, murali, alukabli, plum-tetul pickles from baro fry thela and digest them. I knew a mother who used to boil rasgolla to feed her children. Moira used to boil the rasgolla at home, thinking that it might be harmful to eat. Not allowed to play in the field, lest insects bite the spider. As a result, when the boy and girl were bitten by common ants, the hands and feet would become red and swollen. The immune system was weakened. On the other hand, during the corona period, the incidence of corona was much less in densely populated areas of working people. Naturally, their immunity is more than ours. I’m afraid, we all are not making our own children a Nandalal!
There is nothing new to teach our children, they have grown up. He thinks for the next generation. Don’t you think that the child should be allowed to grow up to be a hardworking person by mixing with nature? And how much we will raise our children like farm chickens or greenhouses? If we do a little work with them or get them used to work, they will not die. Learn to adapt to different situations in life.
