The Saddest Day of My Life
There are some days in a life of an individual that is very difficult to forget. The events of that day remain indelibly etched in his psyche forever, for they are not ordinary. Such days are often instrumental in turning the course of an individual’s life. These days could be sad or happy.
I can never forget the 30th of November, 1995, which was the saddest day of my life. The memory of that day still haunts me. It seemed that life had conspired against me.
I had taken the Supplementary Degree Examinations. We were waiting for the results. I had not done the papers well, still, I hoped to get through. The day started on a sad note. The results were declared. To my great disappointment, my name was not among the successful candidates. My failure was a great shock to my ailing father
That evening another mishap took place. My uncle, who was the only breadwinner of the family, was charged with embezzlement and misuse of funds. He was working as a cashier in a big business firm. He was removed from service. This came as a great shock. My father could not bear all this. He could not think of the fate of the family without the job of my uncle. He began to sink. He breathed his last soon after
We were anyway leading a hand to mouth existence. These events plunged my family into gloom and despair. The onslaught of so many bad events is enough to demoralize even the bravest of all people in the world.
Since that day it has been a long story of struggle and extremely hard work for my family.
Explanation:
Life is a strange mixture of joys and sorrows. Some days are so sad that they take away all joy and peace from the life of man. I cannot forget the day that was the saddest day in my life. It was the 25th of June in the year 2002. The night had been sleepless because of scorching heat, attack of mosquitoes, and frequent failure of electricity. Early in the morning as I was dozing off to sleep, a postman woke me up. It was a piece of sad news. My elder brother who had gone to Pune to attend a seminar on education died there in a road accident. Hardly had my parents left for Pune by a car when a police party reached our place. I lost ground under my feet. They had a warrant for my arrest in connection with a student agitation in our college. They did not listen to my entreaties and took me to the police station. I rang up my lawyer friend but he was out of the station. It was only in the evening that I was bailed out. As I reached home, I found my younger sister crying bitterly. She told me that my nephew had been admitted to the hospital because of severe pain in the stomach. I rushed to the hospital in a rickshaw. On the way, I broke my leg and had to keep my leg in plaster for over three weeks. It is rightly said that misfortunes do not come alone. Even today when I remember that day of untold miseries, my heart comes into my mouth. It was really the saddest day of my life.
