A Man.

It is God who has created every man. A man is the most beautiful part of God's creation. Yet, there is a difference between a man and a man. In many respects, every man differs from every other man in one way or other.An artist presents a sketch of a man beautifully. But, it is not so easy to present his personality with apt words.. There are types of a man. He is not me and I am not him. A scholar says"A man is ten faces of a mad mind." In this regard,one must evince interest and study the human beings to have a clear view or picture. A man could be amazing and interesting. There is good and bad in every man. A man is not either totally good or totally bad.Even though, a man wants to remain as he is . A man cannot remain as he is. A man normally changes with the time. A man changes with his life. A man is not the same always. Many a times a man would be unaware of the changes that he undergoes. The change is visible more in some and it is less or not visible in some.How much stress and strains a man is subjected to or undergoes. Ultimately a man is a product of all those reactions. A man is a pool of experience. What can a man can do. What can a man can't do. It can't be imagined even. Which man has got what potential it could never be said. The potential of a man often comes to light under adverse circumstances. Elders have rightly said "where there's a will there's a way" Every man is ambitious. A man is not what he talks but what he does. A man who does what he says is a man. A man who does what he says develops faith. A man is known or liked mostly for his deeds just like a tree that is known for the fruits that it bears.It's impossible to understand a man completely. We can have a sketch of a man but can't have his complete picture. A man is adventurous. A man is not permanent on this earth. Death is inevitable to him. It's a Damocles sword hanging over his head. It may fall at any time on him. Every man is born equal and dies equal. It is in between only all the difference that arises between a man and a man. Every man's life is special and unique.

There is there in every man something or other to be learned. Learning has no end at all.Timeless Lessons Life Teaches.Instead of trying to teach lessons to others, learn lessons from others. It is wisdom and maturity. This is the conclusion I drew when I thought about that Ramesh Ural. Unless ,one deals with a man they cannot make out what he is. A man is not merely made up of bones and muscles. Every man is made up of qualities too. He is made up of good and bad qualities. He is made up of virtues and vices . A man is more judged by his qualities than his look. The qualities either enhance or decrease capabilities of a man. Every man wants to have amicable qualities and wants others also to have them. One that differs a man and the other man is qualities that one another have. Qualities in a man make him liked or disliked. It is qualities that make a man a gem of a man.

Many valued qualities in a man more than what they valued gold the precious metal. A man would be well known more on account of qualities that he possesses rather on account of riches that he amassed. One is considered as a great man because of qualities he possesses. Most often, one has bad qualities because they are not aware that they are bad qualities. It is quite essential that one must know which are good qualities and which are bad qualities. Good qualities are always to be picked and bad qualities are always to be loathed.Every man has qualities which a few others have. Whatever may happen qualities in some never change at all. However, qualities in some undergo a change depending upon the situation. Any comparison between one man and another man would not be complete at all without the comparison of their respective qualities .

This is the conclusion I arrived when I thought of Ramesh Ural and his extra ordinary qualities that make him a unique man in my eyes. It's his life I am trying to unfold here. His will power was tremendous. His tolerances too. He was a man molded by circumstances. All don't come across same circumstances in life All don't get same opportunities too. Everyone's life differs from that of others. He was short tempered. He used to get angry at small instances. He was mowed down by the situations in his life. He underwent sufferings that couldn't be imagined even. He was aware that the chances of his survival are a little. He was certain that he would die. He was one who said " Death be not proud "He stood firmly as a wall against the circumstances. He was courageous. Any man in his position would have been desperate and nervous. He wouldn't have known what to do and what not to do at that juncture. He remained undeterred. He fought against the odds. He realized that running away from a situation is always not a solution and that which can't be avoided is to be faced.It's a strong mind that's quite essential to face life at such times . A man and his mind get stronger and stronger with every situation that he faces. Then only courage,confidence and all follow him mutely. That's how a man becomes a great man too. This is the secret of every success story also. However ,dreaded a disease may be many never leave the hope and try desperately to survive from it. They carry on the struggle until the end. Majority of people wish to die without causing anyone trouble. They don't want to be bed ridden at all. They wish to die of a heart failure. It's most often "Man proposes ,God disposes" Most of the time it's fate that decides everything. However, a man seldom leaves everything to fate. He struggles and struggles. People in metropolitan cities often die of infectious disease. A cause is certainly needed for a death.

Ramesh Ural was born in a village.He belonged to a respectable family. He had fighting qualities from early childhood. He was determined to make something out of his life. He had great foresight. He planned everything for tomorrow. He was one who would never keep quiet at all. He was good at studies. He was hale and healthy too. One who runs away from home needn't necessarily become a vagabond. One fine morning he ran away from his village to Mumbai.Running away from a far village to Mumbai is no easy task. It's an herculean task. It's not jumping into a flowing river but it's jumping into an ocean.

Mumbai is a metropolitan city where not only the people of Maharashtra but also crores and crores of people from other parts of India and globe either have been leading or have led their life. It is the commercial capital of India. It is a sea of humanity. It is a place which many like and many dislike also.It is where many come up and many get ruined too. Employment opportunities are countless in Mumbai. Anyone who wants to work can work there.It has given birth to hundreds of rags to riches stories. Many have risen from the pavements to the top most jobs there. This is only a rosy picture of Mumbai.There is other picture of Mumbai too. It is also a place where one has no time to care for other. Many die there as nonentities. There is not much difference between the two pictures.

Those who come to Mumbai from Dakshina Kannada used to disembark either at Victoria Terminus or Dadar Central railway stations in those days. Ramesh Ural got down at Dadar Central railway station. It is situated in the heart of Mumbai. There was no one to receive him at the station. He was standing on the platform with a small suitcase. Train after train were arriving and departing uninterrupted there. It is the only railway station common to both the Central and Western lines. Dadar Central railway station is one of the busiest and crowded railway stations in Mumbai. There was jostling crowd and noise everywhere there . In fact, he was pushed out of the railway station. Anyone in his position would have had a nervous breakdown down at that time. He took a deep breath and calmed down. There was no time actually at his disposal to stop and think also. His immediate task was to find food and shelter. Settling down anywhere is no easy. It is a slow process.

Mumbai he had not seen before but he had heard a lot about it. His was a young mind. He had planned a lot. He had built an "ivory tower" in his mind.What was making rounds in his mind was earn & learn. There is ample of scope to earn & learn especially in Mumbai.There are number of evening and night colleges there.Day by day commercialization of education is spreading in India. A few only would have sleep in trains with sounds of the rails right in ears all the time. Ramesh Ural wasn't having proper sleep since he left his native village. Besides, he was very tired because of the long journey that he had undertaken. He wasn't in a position to walk more. He wasn't either having address of a friend or a relative to go also. Besides, he was left with meager amount in his pocket. Luckily for him only when he had walked a few yards outside on western side of Dadar railway station, he came across Udupi Restaurant. Udupi hotels are normally owned by people belonging to Dakshina Kannada .Ural stepped into it. On the cash counter he noticed a short jovial fat fellow clad in white dhoti and jubba with kum kum on the forehead and a gold chain decorating the neck. Ural could make out from his appearance and behavior that he must be the owner of the hotel. Ramesh Ural ordered for a dosa and coffee. At least a few workers in a Udupi hotel would be from Udupi or nearby places.Ural got acquainted with one by name Nagaraj Karanth there . Ural could gather from him that man at the cash counter was owner Subraya Adiga and there were some vacancies in the hotel also. After finishing his tiffin Ural made his way to the cash counter. He humbly requested Subraya Adiga to accommodate him in the hotel as a supplier. It was an auspicious moment Mr Adiga acceded to his request.When times are good, good things happen. Thus, Ural got a foothold in Mumbai to pursue his goal. An ambitious man would always remain restless.He always thinks of ways and means to achieve goals. He would never rest until all his ambitions are fulfilled. He always looks for the better prospects. Though,money isn't everything ,it's essential to achieve many goals.
