ADVERSITY.........

This little girl is none other than Farah ahmedi, from Afghanistan

who became a victim of war . Today she earns in dollars

and do you know what is so wonderful about that , Because she

doesn’t know to read and write , yet because of her belief and

confidence she is now settled in America along with her mother

and is living a life of a winner. Though she was handicapped , she

could’nt be handicapped in her mind, for which she has been

rewarded well for being courageous in the face of adversity.

Farah now can walk with the help of prosthetics , thanks to the

world of medicine and engineering she now lives her life of

dreams , she still remembers the moment when she refused to wear

prosthetics and thanks the nurses in Germany where she was

operated and fit with the limbs because if it had not been for them,

it wouldn’t have allowed her so much of freedom.


She is a living example of a person who has endured so much pain

at such a tender age and has had the courage to face the death of

her father and sisters in the war and it was not over with that, her

brothers are missing and she has no clue as to where they are, but

still she lives with hope and happiness and is glad that she was able

to save her mother atleast. Doesn’t this tell us how much brave and

solemn this girl must have been to face so many adversities in her

life. Sometimes I wonder we all are so lucky to have been taken

care of by our parents but still feel mutinous if one of our wishes

were not fulfilled. So the next time you feel so, remember Farah

and thank the God for giving you so many luxuries in life. God has

certainly blessed all of us in keeping our loved ones well. Thank

God and Mother nature.

Truly an inspiring story to read. I too have thought how rash i have acted sometimes, then felt bad about it. I understand that you have learnt a lot about being thankful for what god has given us. Loving parents,relations and so wealth and health to live happily. Thanks for sharing the info.

Oh thank you very much for your encouraging words, i thought of writing about this after feeling how much this girl had faced in her life and here we are getting sad for not getting what we want, though whatever might happen we must continue to move on in life.
