Aravindh says: "During the way out of Thiruvannamalai Temple,Tamil Nadu, my friends and I saw a man selling Cotton candy outside the temple premises. We actually planned to take rest and the Cotton candy man just spoke some words to us.He said like 2 packets cost Rs.10,would you like to buy? And my friend bought a total of 5 packets and laid him 30 rupees.He said he had no change as it is a morning.We said to keep that as tips but he ignored to keep the change and returned 5 rupees from others by selling the candy.I asked why he wants to be that must honest,and he simply answered "Single rupee apart from my work is equal to begging,I am supposed not to be a beggar." We shocked at his answer and wondered what kind of attitude it is.Then he said "The colors of the candy makes sense to be honest,Colors gives the joy whatever the situation is." From his words we understood that he had a tough situation and trying to overcome.He is the real brave hero that I have experienced."
