As stated in the first post
A few pieces of paper that I found while looking for some papers today are not just pieces, but these are a part of my life… 18. At the age of 19 years, before the maturity of life, since then, the time started to feel distance from this birth body. Ignorance from my own home, a stop in everything, something more than me, the consideration given to someone younger than me, I started to feel this birth just like I felt for my body in life. That day, I gave up my studies half way. A state where I didn’t feel like staying at home. Something like a fear of dying. Only the mat on the floor and the pillow soaked with my tears fell to listen to my sorrows. ….
I felt that I needed a job, but I don’t want it in my country. is patient care. I need to look at the elderly people… I called them both and told them that I am interested in the job, but I have to go tomorrow. I don’t have a single rupee. I don’t know the place. Thrissur. And the answer is that there is no puchcha bhava??
Then I called one of my friends and said something like this, I got a job as a homemaker in Reliance, can you help me with any kind of income? He said you can come anywhere till Kollam and I will give you money from there.
From there he got the first job in Thrissur with the one hundred and fifty rupees he gave and a salary of four thousand and five hundred rupees??
When I asked my mother that day, I didn’t feel bad about not giving her the money, but the next day, when she told me that she had bought a helmet for my brother, I felt a little worried….

As mentioned in the second post
Neglect and teasing from the first job I found and the mental stress I found in another job….. Here I was completely disappointed and could not sleep for a single night… due to the violence of my companions and the women and men who worked with me during the day, including my manager. It is another place where I had to endure a lot of pain after making fun of my identity and then after the evening shift, I was afraid to stay there and then I had to take two buses to go back home. Most of the time the second bus would have left. I had walked thirteen to fourteen kilometers. A single person can hardly sleep in the corner of a room without a door, so many nights that have passed in my life, even today, when I remember them, I feel a deep feeling inside. And the coal man…
