The night was deep. There is silence all around. A young man sits in a small hut on the edge of town. His name is Arup. Arup is about thirty years old. Life has not given him an easy time. He lost his parents in childhood and became an orphan. Since then he is alone. Grow up by fighting life.
Arup had a strange dream in his eyes, which he started seeing when he was very young. He wanted to help people, bring light to their lives. But the hard reality of the society has challenged this dream again and again. Still he did not give up. He learned through his own struggles and hardships that life's greatest teacher is struggle.
Arup is making a living by doing menial jobs in the city. Today he went to work, but his mind was very heavy. His mind keeps saying, "Is this everything in my life?" Will life pass like this?” He closed his eyes to think.
At that time there was a sudden knock on the door. Arup is shocked. Who can come so late at night? He opened the door and saw an old man standing there. Tears in the eyes of the old woman, body shaking. Arup realizes that he is in a very helpless state.
Arup brings the old lady inside. The old woman kept saying, “Father, my son has thrown me out of the house. Where will I go at night? Will you shelter me in your house?”
Arup gets stunned hearing the old lady's words. He reassures the old woman, “Don't worry, mother. This house is yours, stay here.”
The old woman cried holding Arup's hand and said, "Father, I will be grateful to you all my life for this kindness of yours."
Arup puts the old lady to bed, and brings her some food. The old woman slept peacefully after eating. But Arup's mind still has many thoughts. He thinks, “I myself am in a difficult situation. So how can I help this old woman?” But immediately his mind said, “Humanity is great. Don't miss an opportunity to help people."
Arup could not sleep the whole night. When the light begins to break in the morning, he goes out. He decides, no matter what, he will take charge of this old woman. After returning from work, he spends time with the old woman, listening to her stories. Days passed like this. A smile appeared on the old woman's face again. Arup realizes that he is on the right path.
But one day an unexpected event happened. When Arup was returning from work, some boys blocked his way. One of them said, "Do you know that the old woman you sheltered is not from our area. Why did you let him stay here?”
Arup calmly replies, “It is our duty to stand by people. Wherever he is, he is human. It is our duty to help him.”
But the boys were not satisfied. They threaten Arup, "If you don't get him out of here, it won't be good for you."
Arup was not scared though. He knew what he was doing was right. He returned home and told everything to the old woman. The old woman cried and said, “Father, you don't have to suffer so much for me. let me go I will go somewhere else.”
Tears came to Arup's eyes. He says, “No mom, I won't let you go anywhere. What I am doing is right. You stay close to me.”
That night Arup decides that he will not be afraid. He promises that he will stand by people in any situation. He knows, there will be many more obstacles ahead of him, but he is ready to face everything.
Finally one day those boys came and attacked Arup's house. They want to throw out the old woman. But Arup came forward. "You can beat me, but I won't leave him," he says firmly. There was determination and courage in his voice.
The boys were shocked. They understand, defeating this young man is not easy. Finally they go back.
Arup's life changes a lot after this incident. The villagers started respecting him after hearing about his bravery. He sows seeds of hope and humanity among the villagers.
This is how Arup moves towards fulfilling his dream. He knows that life is not easy. But if you can do something for people, that life is worthwhile. Arup's life was also worthwhile. He went from being an ordinary youth to a symbol of humanity.
Arup's story teaches us that it is possible to shine the light of humanity despite all the adversities of life. His life's struggle inspires us, how to overcome all obstacles of life and stand by people.
This is how an ordinary youth became extraordinary, whose life story lives on as an inspiration of humanity among people.
