I remember when I was
in first year of law (almost 4 Years ago) and my dad used to give me 100 rupees
per day as my pocket expenses and I used to spend the entire amount just to eat franky, chicken rolls, Chinese and other sort of junk foods. I was just sweet
seventeen and was ignorant of so many social hurdles and responsibilities.
Finally, a day came in my life and I started doing an internship in my second
year of law and as a stipend amount I used to get Rs. 1,500/- for a month which
amounts to Rs. 50/- per day.
I was totally disheartened
and disappointed when I used to get such a less amount on monthly basis which
was lesser than my pocket expenses which I used to get without working
anywhere. After some days of my work my dad informed me that he is not going to
pay me a single penny (after completing
one month of training period) for my expenses as I am earning and I should be
independent now. I was totally shocked after hearing my dad’s words because my
expenses used to be more than my stipend amount; but somewhere I controlled my anger and
moved on in my life.
After a month I received
my stipend and I made my expenses schedule in which junk foods/outside food was
strictly outside the list because I used to carry my mom made Tiffin everyday
and forgot to have all junk foods. I started spending less and I focused on my
savings and out of that stipend amount I saved 700 rupees from my 1,500/ stipend and I just
spent 315/ rupees on my railway monthly pass from Virar to Churchgate and little bit amount only I spent in the entire month. My happiness was on ninth cloud; for the first time I saved 700 rupees
and improved my lots of bad habits.
I shared this
incident to my dad. He softly replied “this is what I wanted in you; you always
should have habit of savings for your bad time or to help your near ones and
dear ones when they are in trouble”. My dad’s words clearly made a silent picture
of his encouragement and his guidance and I understood that he wanted me to understand
and face the reality in real world and not just in his words.
