Indian Middle Class

One beautiful story about the beauty of my country.
This is the class that has always decided the future of this nation.

How corrupt we may go, in the process of earning money but still we survive. The only reason being is, somewhere in our hearts, the old values, the things we were taught since we were kids..were still there. They may not see the light always. But in times of need, they do show their true face.

One may wonder about the Lady, who fought with the Ticket Checker and the Station Master for the reason that he charged a 50 more than the usual fine.

She breaks all those thoughts with one sentence.

"But today, ten days out of home, I would like to believe that his value systems, everything that we have taught him, stand by him. It is not just about the money. I needed to know that our values stand for something, and that when he stands by them, we stand by him. There is wrong, for which he must pay his fines, but equally there is right, and even one Rupee to the left is not right."

When she said that, she stands by her son, when he stood for something he believed in, it shows her confidence in the values she taught her son. In the culture of this country that never failed when it is met with courage and confidence.
She made her son realize that his parents stand by him whenever he is right. And this incident reminds him of the path to follow at every crossroad of life he faces.

Thanks to this class and values of the Nation.
