A Smile
For
M’am Sumbal
The topic that I choose to write this time is the most precious one .This article is graciously dedicated to our beloved teacher M’am SUMBAL .She is no more among us and died last year in an accident.She was very young and was appointed as a lecturer after completing her graduation in the field of Mettalurgy from UET ,Lahore .
We also consider ourselves very lucky to got a chance to study from her.
She was a type of teacher who got never any criticism about her job at university .She always loved by her students .She was extremely dedicated and committed teacher.
I remember, in our exams , usually teachers don’t guide or don’t give even a little help , But she was always in a hurry to help the students who called her for the problem . I never saw such dedication ever .
We always saw M’am Sumbal Happy .This does not mean that M’am Did not get any trouble ever.But I wanna say here that M’am was having the ability to hide all the problems and trobles that she’s been through and always put a smile for others so that other person don’t even get to know .
She used to love humanity .In class , she used to treat every one equally without any discrimination of caste , colour , religion ,and background .
.Whenever we was having a lecture with her , so in the end of it , she often used to tell us some good incident or beautiful things about life .we all used to listen it with very concentration because the way of expression of telling some incident was fabulous.
So
Here today I am actually going to share the one incident that M’am sumbal used to tell us in the end of our lecture.
So here is that incident by M’am Sumbal ;
''
Once almost 20 years after the partition of pak-ind , the Pakistan was still very new .People are struggling for their survival ,they were trying hard in every matter of life .
There was once a Christian young boy used to leave somewhere near town in Lahore .He was just having his old father , who used to be sick all the time . They were actually very poor .They were not even having enough clothes to wear.
That young guy then went to Lahore and try to find some work , but he got nothing in this big city .For almost six months ,he keeps searching for some work , but the truth is that he got nothing .
Then In such disappointed situations , he thought to went Jinnah bagh in Lahore for some walk to get away from all the troubles of not getting any work.so he loved it going there and made his habit daily in the morning to go there and have some rest .
While daily refreshment walk at park in the morning , he made some friends who also used to come there in the morning .
In these friends , there was one American person who used to walk daily in the park .so whenever they pass side by side to each other then that Christian guy used to pass a smile to that American guy , and American guy also used to smile back in reply .
They did not used to talk though ever in park but that SMILE thing had made some connection between them .
So on the side , the conditions was getting worse and worse for that poor Christian guy .he had spend all his savings and nothing left now .
Then some of his friends advised him to arrange some money and try to apply for the VISA in America. If you got the Visa , you will get bright future there .
That Christian guy inspired a lot by that idea , he somehow arrange some money and went to American embassy in lahore for the VISA .
When he reached there , he saw that thousands of people who are also economically good and sound were there for the VISA .That Christian guy thought himself the only poor among them and lost the hope of getting VISA .
In those days whoever got the VISA consider himself to be a very lucky guy.
So that Christian guy also got more depression as he used to thought himself a very unlucky .
After a long wait , atlast his turn came for Visa application.when he get inside the room that he found out that embassay has issued just 10-12 visas totally for the thousands of ppl waiting outside . that thing was very depressing for that Christian guy.
But as the moment he proceed to the desk where applications has to be submitted .he saw that the it was the same American person who used to walk with him in the morning and they used to pass smile to each other. So same things happen again . The American recognized him and they smiled each other .In the end , that American guy said to that Christian guy that
‘Don’t worry , welcome to America ‘.
So, He got the Visa .he was considering himself now very lucky .
He then went America and work hard and hard and hard.And soon the same poor Christian guy was become one of the most richest ppl in the United States Of America.
Then some years ago the famous Coulmnist Javed Ch went to America to meet that guy who was very rich now and try to found out from him that what was the secret of his too uch success.
You know what he said in reply
He said that whatever I got today is just because of my smile .i used to smile most of the time . smile makes other person lovely for you. Your toughest work can be converted into such an ease by just a smile . so secret behind all my success is SMILE .''
So
Guys that was incident that M’am Sumbal used to told us in the end of lecture .
Now it’s our duty that after reading that article we have to dedicate atleast One SMILE for her so that her soul can feel more good in heaven.
May her soul rest in peace
