Money and Family

Rama’s family is very big. Rama is a hard worker and he is the only bread winner of the family. He has three kids, two sons and a daughter. He lives along with father and mother.

He works for more than 16 hours a day. The kids cannot see him because he leaves home early in the morning before they wake-up and returns home at night when kids are sleeping. His children eagerly wait for Sundays to spend time with him and miss him so much.

Unfortunately, Rama took a weekend job to earn more money for his family. He started to work even on Sundays. The kids, his wife and parents were very upset.

A year passed. Rama had a good job and earned a lot of money. The family moved to a new house, got better clothes and ate healthy foods. However, as usual, Rama continues to earn more and more money. One day his wife asked him ‘why are you running for money? We can be happy with what we have now.’

Rama replied, ‘I want to give the best in the world to all of you and want you to stay happy always.’

Two years passed and Rama hardly spent time with his family.

Now, Rama’s family is one of the richest families in the city. Still, Rama’s children miss him very much.

His children turned teens and they are no more kids.

Once Rama’s family went to their beach house to spend their vacation. His daughter asked, ‘Dad will you please spend one day at home and stay with us here?’

Rama replied, ‘Yes darling, tomorrow for sure, I will join you for the lunch and be with you all for next few days. I’m tired of work!’

The entire family became very happy.

Unfortunately, the next day, none in Rama’s family were alive as they were washed out in Tsunami!

Rama was too busy even to hear the news about Tsunami. When he tried to reach his beach house, he saw sea and water everywhere and screamed for his family, He could not even find the dead bodies of his family.

He can never have them again, cannot even see them and even by paying millions he cannot get them back to life!

He remembered his wife’s words, ‘Why are you running for money? We can be happy with what we have now.’
