Life is a Cycle

Siraj Bir Singh Gill, Class 5, Learning Paths School, Punjab 

Once upon a time in the United States of America, there was a poor kid called Racoon who lived on the streets. He didn’t have any food, water, shelter or money. He was dressed in clothes that had holes and wore dusty old shoes. One day, a billionaire’s son approached the poor boy and said, “Eww, look at those dusty shoes and ugly clothes you’re wearing!” Everyone around the poor boy began to laugh. The poor kid became upset and ran away, crying.

While crying, he ran into a wealthy man. “Watch it, kid. Why are you crying?” said the wealthy man. “A wealthy son humiliated me for my old shoes and ugly clothes,” said the poor boy. The wealthy man took pity on the boy. He was so moved by his plight that he gave him $200 to spend on new clothes, shoes and food. The boy smiled and thanked the man. The boy went shopping and purchased some nice clothes and shoes. He then went to a nice restaurant to eat. He even fed other poor people.

The boy decided to look for work. He applied for jobs everywhere, but no one would hire him. He began to lose hope. When he saw the wealthy man again, he told the wealthy man about his situation. “You can work at my mansion. You can clean the floor and the windows,” the wealthy man said. After some thought, the boy agreed. He started working there and did well. The wealthy man was overjoyed and decided to send him to school for a proper education.

He graduated from high school and then from college after six years. He rose to fame as a successful YouTuber who created funny, interesting and adventurous videos. He rose to become one of the world’s richest YouTubers.

One day, he came across the rich boy who had humiliated him 12 years ago. But the rich boy was no longer wealthy; he was dressed in ripped clothes and damaged shoes. Mr Racoon was a good man who remembered how a wealthy man had helped him to become what he was today. He gave the once-rich boy $400 dollars. The boy was overjoyed and expressed regret for what he had done to him 12 years ago.
