Triumph over fate: Physically disabled become inspirations
Overcoming hurdles if often difficult but people who overcoming their shortcomings, be it personal shortcomings, physical and other challenges, become an inspiration for others. Such people are associated with every profession and openly challenge the society with their hard work and exemplary work.
Hyderabad: Overcoming hurdles if often difficult but people who overcoming their shortcomings, be it personal shortcomings, physical and other challenges, become an inspiration for others. Such people are associated with every profession and openly challenge the society with their hard work and exemplary work.
These inspirational persons are seen selling fruits, books, running road side eateries and other businesses as such. They are the real fighters in the society who bravely face the challenges and overcome to prove that hard work never goes in vain.
One such exceptional man is Shafi, who had been selling fruits despite being physically challenged. He can be seen near Elephant House, Ameerpet. Shafi had lost his hand in an accident and carries out every task with his single hand now. He said that he was convinced that he had to work if he wants to live and it gave him inspiration to start selling fruits. He said that it was not so easy but after some time he was expert in carrying out all the tasks with only one hand. “I do not want to be a burden on others, not even on my children,” he said.
These people unknowingly and indirectly inspire many who pass by and look at them. A visually impaired person on the other hand can be seen selling tea powder, scent and other accessories for his living. He had been very popular in the localities of First Lancer, Mehdipatnam, Afzal Gunj, Abids and other areas. He cannot see but had been in this business for several years now. He is a silent message for the society. He had to identify the currency by touching it and he had to practice for the new currency notes for some time.
Arshad, on the other hand is 80 per cent disabled physically.
He runs a cassette shop near Mallepally mosque and is quite a known person in the surrounding areas. He said that challenges can be from outside and from within. He said, “We have to defeat pessimism and chose a path to stand up and run. We cannot carry the baggage of short comings.” He had been doing this as a common businessman and was successful in it so far.
