We should see beauty in everything - Part 1

Kevin grew up in a poor neighborhood as his parents were struggling to make their ends meet. His mother wanted him to get educated so that he could help those who are in need when he secures a job in the future. 

His mother worked three part time jobs and managed to take care of him so that she could save up all the money for his education. They lived in a displayed house that barely was livable. Kevin grew up knowing the struggles his mother had faced. His father fell ill suddenly and passed away which made their situation even worse. 

However, they managed to scrape by everyday. Kevin used to starve during the afternoon by saving up money his mother provides him to buy lunch. He wanted to save up all the money and thank her for all the sacrifices she made. One of the employees in the school, Maria, observed this and used to bring food specially for him so that he could have a hearty meal at least once a day. She asked Kevin about his mother and understood their living conditions. 

One day Maria visited Kevin's house and saw the living conditions he was in. She felt heart broken and promised to help his mother, Mary, to secure a good job in the school so that they could live in a better situation. 

Even Though Mary tried to politely decline, Maria was adamant that she would help her out. Thus, Mary got a job in school and their living conditions became better. They were able to have food everyday. Maria even personally overlooked and renovated Kevin's one bedroom house so that it was not leaking and they could stay comfortably. 

Kevin promised Maria that he would repay all the expenses for renovation when he starts earning and makes enough money. These words made Maria happy and she told him to just help others out who struggle to survive and ro never forget the struggles they had in life. Little Kevin was happy and so was his mother Mary.
