Ram's Childhood
Ramesh's parents came to America in the late 1980s, using up all the pennies they scraped up to do so in the process.
They had two children - Amar, and their favourite, Ramesh who was born on the 4th of September 1991. They hadn't much, and their parents were only earning money through small oddjobs he could find. Despite all of this, they were just happy to be together as one family.
The early years of Ramesh's childhood were bright and wonderful, but it soon started to change soon after Ramesh began attending school for the first time.
He noticed his parents arguing more frequently.
Ramesh just learned to just brush it all aside, even though it did hurt him inside. He always kept his feelings bottled up inside.
Even though there was trouble and unrest at home, Ramesh was always positive and friendly towards other people in school. He never wanted someone to feel upset because he knew very well how it felt.
Ramesh studied hard. He wanted to make sure something went right the messed up family of his.
Highschool flew by for him and soon he was out on his own.
Ram on his own
Ramesh was now independant. He thought this was great. He was free from the troubles at home, and was able to do anything he wanted.
He hadn't any plan. He didn't know how the world worked. But he was happy.
Ramesh worked mostly small retail jobs and moved around a lot in the city.
One day, he was taking a cab home from an evening out, when it hit him. By now he was in his mid-20s, and wanted a steady job.
Ramesh was always fascinated by cab drivers. He thought they had it good, he thought they had lots of freedom.
He knew exactly what he wanted to be.
