Inspired by Petronas Ad.
I stepped out from the airport. I got into a cab. Along the road, I saw a different city. I left for only 3 years, yet almost everything had changed. I had a long conversation with the 50-year-old taxi driver.
TD – Sir, you’re lucky to have me to fetch you. You’re going to an old town. All the route had changed. Young driver don’t even know how to reach there.
I still remembered my childhood. My father told me that we have to work hard for our future. We will achieve success if we insist to. Later on, I was offered with scholarship to study abroad. At that time, my father involved in a problem due to his determination not to sell our house to a private company. I was worried about him. I tried to convince him to give up but he ignored me. We argued.
In these 3 years time, I never went back home. At last, I reached there. My eyes were filled with tears. My house was exactly the way it was. My parents were sitting in the yard. Now, I understand.
“There is one only thing won’t change, Family. Believe in insistence.”
