George Washington Carver

I first got to know about this person when my mam gave me a book(एक होता कार्वर) as present when i was in 12th . I was not the kind of reader those days which i am these days. But i used to think that these rich guys or students from the cities have easy access to so many things and hence they get so many better opportunities. I did not belong to poor family as ours should be considered well to do and i could have afforded many things which poor people could not . Still i would worry more about what i did not have. And then i got this book which i read in one sitting. And i never ever said i got less after that. How else can you finish that book. One just keep wondering what is next and what he is going to do. If somebody else even completes education in such conditions that itself is an achievement forget the kind of research Carver has done. I wonder and ask what would i have done if i had found myself in such situation and i simply go blank. Carver mentions it was his faith in Jesus which kept him going.
Simply reading story about this man makes me feel anybody can take education. And not just for sake of it but something which can give you capability of brilliant research in your field. Anybody who thinks he/she does not have very good conditions to take education should read about this person and ask themselves the question : Is my situation really worse than his ? If not what are you waiting for ? And i am sure yours will be lot better than his. So go education .. get your dreams !!
