In some point in life, we meet some amazing people who become a source of motivation and inspiration to us. The same thing happened with a Lahori guy, Saleem Kazmi who met a common railway station worker – coolie during a trip. But this common railway station worker has an unusual story. Upon meeting Yousif for just ten minutes, Saleem found that Yousif is working at the railway station from last 20 years. Yousif left the job when he raised his children successfully.
His son completed his engineering degree from NUST and the university selected him as a lecturer but fate has some other plans. Yousif’s son died in a road accident in Lahore. Yousif rejoined his former job at the railway station and he is now working hard to educate his two daughters with a paralyzed right shoulder and shivering hands.
Here Is What Saleem Wrote On His Facebook Post!
Met Yousif at Lahore Railway Station last night. We hardly talked for 10 minutes and these 10 minutes were enough to get the motivation of lifetime. Yousif worked at Railway station for 20 years and left the job as he successfully raised his children. He had a son who completed his Engineering Degree from NUST. His son was also selected as a lecturer at NUST at the same department. and in 2008 his son died in a car accident in Lahore. His world was vanished in the matter of few moments.
His long awaiting good life ended and he came to Railway station and started same job again.. This time he is investing his hard work in his 2 daughters and both of them are getting educated. Yousif with shivering hands and right shoulder paralyzed, work day and night to make it possible for his daughters. The magnificent human potential is beyond the comprehension of human himself. Respect for this Gem #humanstories
