My goal is clear

Today ws a hectic day.. Frm gettin up early in d morning 2 givin my room mate's clothes 2 my frnd b4 d college bus left so dat he cld wear somethin decent 4 placements..2 havin an hr lng discussion wit another of my frnds abt d controversies surroundin placements...i wnt 2 hav my first meal at arnd 2 in d noon. After eatin, I ws standin at my usual place smokin my after-meal Insignia..A prtty small girl came up 2 me n held out her hand..dat kid ws quite young..arnd 6 r 7..i ws shocked outta my wits..wtf is happenin arnd here..nywys..i had 2 rs left..i dug em out frm my pocket 'n gave it 2 her...d kid tottered awy and resumed her "begging". i thot dat dis girlie surely must nt b on her own and der mst b some motherfucker who sorta cntrls her...sure enof.. after a bit of lookin arnd...i saw a woman sittin undr a tree...and omg....der wer 3 to 4 kids "reportin" 2 her at regular intervals..dammmit..my 1st instinct ws 2 go 2 dat bitch 'n give her a piece of my mind..bt my 2nd thot ws..wat if these kids were liberated rite nw...wer wud dey go?? who'd take care of em..wat if their new env is worse dan d present...

My dream has alwys been 2 earn big...real big..wenever i feel dis way...d nxt question dat i ask myself..wtf am i gonna do wit all dis money? i answer myself dat i'll set up research foundations and help out buddin researchers 'n stuff..bt..after 2day...i knw i've found a better use 4 my dream money..and i've made a resolution..whether i strike it rich r nt.. as soon as i can stnd on my own legs...i knw wat i must do nw...i wanna set up a children's foundation...yup..der r a zillion of em arnd...bt..i wanna do it wit a diff....n even if it brngs me 2 d streets..i wanna give these kids a home...all such kids a home..i knw dat wat i'm sayin mite sound like shit r overhyped trash 2 a lotta ppl out der..bt everythin mst hav a beginnin...'n dis s wer my dream begins..i wnt these children 2 go 2 a normal skool.. nt some shitty local gvt skool r some special skool 4 orphans..dey're d worst ever.. i wnt dem 2 hav a normal life..its true dese kids will never knw deir parents..bt life s tuff..n u gotta make d most of wat u hav..and i'm goin 2 give dese kids a chance... 2 get bk on track.. 2 hold their heads high....2 never bow down...2 never give up..

As I finished my smoke nd walked home, 1 of d kids on his rounds ws askin somethin as ppl passed by him...n as every1 ignored him.. i thot he ws askin alms..wen i crossed him...he stopped me 'n asked d name of d movie runnin in d theater opposite wher v wer standin... My heart skipped a beat..dis boy ws arnd 10 yrs old...wit grey eyes.. wen he shld hav been playin wit other kids his age..wen he shld hav been runnin in2 his mother's arms...huggin her..playfully fightin wit his dad..dis ws wat he ws doin..fuk..Ironically, d movie's name ws "Youth", an old Vijay movie.. I tld him...'n he smiled nd walked awy...s..at times like dis..ur brain stops workin..i couldn even bring myself 2 talk a kind wrd r two 2 d boy..mayb i coulda asked wat brot him 2 dis stae.. bt dat din happen..rather...i din let dat happen.nywys..dats past redemption nw..bt..dis incident will b my inspiration till d end..

My path may be foggy...But my goal is clear..
