When I was in the final year of my graduation studies, I visited a friend’s home for lunch. The moment I reached his house, I found the staircases of his building were not so good and his home was not painted very well. I couldn’t
36 in words but it was not even the type of house in which a typical middle-class Indian family lives.The greatest things I did find there were his parents. We sat on the ground for lunch because they didn’t have a dining
37 . His mother served us very delicious food, smiled throughout and showed care for the
38 lunch session. I can never forget that.
His father worked as a normal
39 and I wondered if he earned enough money to support their two sons. While we were taking lunch, his father returned home to meet us. When he entered their home, his hands were dark black and his clothes were very dirty. My friend had no
40 about his father and made the introductions.
As soon as his father came in, my friend asked me if I wanted “Papad”（a typical Indian food）to eat. Before I could say anything, the father very gently and kindly
41 it for me, after going through many staircases even though he was looking
42 .
Today, my friend is a leader in a big company. He is able to
43 high rent in Hyderabad and have a new beautiful home. Not only that, he helped his brother
44 in his studies and is still helping.What I want to say is that I consider
45 as richness in a poor family. The amount of money you make won’t
46 other’s hearts; the only way is with love and kindness. Struggle and bad periods are needed for everyone’s life, as they make us strong. If you have strong willpower, goals and also the attitude of hard and smart work, you can
47 be a successful person in some areas of life.
