Against all odds, this differently-abled Mumbai man survived tragic circumstances and showed rare determination and courage in turning his life around. His story has been posted on the Humans of Bombay Facebook page.
At six, he lost a leg in an accident. At 15, he fled a life of abuse at home to become a petty criminal living on the streets. At his lowest point, there was a 'shoot on sight' order to his name. And just when it seemed the darkest, a ray of light appeared - how he managed to overcome his tribulations and become a stand-up citizen today is beyond inspiring.
Read the post below to really understand how one person's faith in him shaped who he is today. "That's the message of my story -- that one person CAN make a difference," he says on Facebook.
This one's for anyone who is looking for a sign, for hope - help is never far away.
