The situation has only deteriorated once I came out of the hostel for a 3-month vacation before getting into my UG as I was not welcomed into any of our relatives’ house. Having only a handful of money and not wanting to disclose my situation to my parents as they were themselves in trouble, I had the toughest period of my life. All the arrogance, carelessness and pride I had were shot dead during this stint.
Having such experiences, I started concentrating more on the way people act during such situations and to probably help them out. Most of the students started getting addicted to alcohol and smoking which only deteriorated their condition both mentally and physically. Being a teetotaler, I made sure that I could curb such acts at least to some extent and give my support by motivating or talking through the situation.
People always need a helping hand and it becomes all more important when one is in trouble. Most of the successful people undergo such situations, fight it out and come out in flying colours. It is not only self-development but the effort to contribute to the welfare of the nearby people or society that makes a person fulfill his destiny.
