I am 23yr old poor guy from india.I have completed my graduation recently with good record.My dream is to study in United states which is my favorite place on earth i always dream for it day and night and i just pray that god will help me to achieve my destination.unfortunately i belongs to one of the most remotest places of india where education has also lowest quality i improve my english by watching movies and videos online.My dad has very strict nature and i am the only son in the family.So he is highly opposing to Sending me away from town.He is a farmer and does not know the value of education he just wants me to marry soon and settle here and handle the farmer position after him.As a son i have agreed whatever he says i do all the fields and farmer related works on his orders.But whenver i raise my issue of Going for higher education he immediately objects and try to avoids it by saying who will look after me the fields and the possessions i have got from your granDfathers and also advise me to staying here in your town is the best option.But as a human everyone have their dreams in life.I want change in myself i have thirst of education and exploring new places.Is this my mistake to born in a poor background.Sometime i curse myself when my neighbours child go out of town for higher education.I have tried to Convince my father with all my tool by respecting him and obeying him.But i really feeling now that i am assassinating my dreams with my own hands.Many times i feel that god is speaking to me like he is saying"i have given you power gifted you with good mind and good heart in a hope that someday you will serve the humanity by the powers recieved from me now its your fault if you are not taking the stand and stand for yourself".I am just hoping now that one day my dad will know the value of education.My dream is to make his and our family lives even more better than that and i see this oppurtunity only when if by chance i get a chance to study in any university in usa.My dream is to contribute to the society where i belongs to to provide them with good quality education and their life better than today..
