| In 1982, I was a young marketing person in a company in Mumbai. I had a very senior colleague named Paul, who taught me how to 1 marketing effectively and how to deal with life 2 . It was one of those 3 days…management, sales calls, planning my travel schedule, booking hotels, arranging appointments and the 4 was endless. By the end of the day, I was not only exhausted but was getting 5 . It was at this time that Paul invited me to his house to have a rest. We made our way to Paul's house. Although 6 after a day's hard work, I was excited to chat with Paul and 7 his rich experience in marketing. As we entered his house 8 the main door, Paul started singing his favourite song, I have a dream. I was in no 9 to listen to his song. I only wanted to hear about how he handled 10 sales calls. As I leaned over Paul's shoulder to tell him that, two young girls walked up to Paul and hugged him. They couldn't walk steadily, and neither could they talk 11 , but their faces were full of 12 and they also sang a song: No mummy's kisses only daddy's smiles; nobody wants us, and daddy hugs us tonight. I was watching what was going on, totally 13 in the beautiful singing, when Paul tapped me on the shoulder and asked me to sit down. 14 to know, I asked Paul who these girls were. To my 15 , Paul told me they were his daughters and they were born as " 16 children" (mentally disabled). His wife died and he was both Mother and Father to them. I was moved to tears. In the office, no one knew what Paul was 17 in his personal life. He never looked for 18 from his friends and colleagues. On the contrary, he always helped us at the office. And being head of the Department, he always 19 us to move forward in life. Paul's life has been a great 20 to me. If a man can smile through these troubles, nothing can prevent him from achieving success in work or life. | ||||
