After my industrial training finished I was lucky to get a job at my training place. As I am the only child in my family I had to take care of my parents too. I got a job in Colombo but my hometown in the Kandy district. My parents lived there. Once a month I got shutdown leave from the construction site & I visit to see my parents during this period. It was only three days for a month. At that time period, I had a motorbike & I used it to travel to Kandy. My father brought this bike but registered under my name when I was studied at the Open University. As my family consists of three people but I have only a two-seater vehicle. So I had to face some difficulties during my home visits.

Since that era, I love to travel. My parents were looking whole month to spend these three days with me. So I decided to buy a car. Then we can travel together, that was my task. Then I started to study about cars. In my free time, I surf the internet to looking for a car. Among several varieties of cars, my choice was a wagon-type car. I saw several advantages of wagons than the saloon type cars. Every time I saw a wagon-type car on the road I dreamed to have it. My money was enough to dreaming, not to buy a car. Gradually, I began to raise money to make my dream true. I asked for a loan from several banks & my loan applications were rejected due to not enough basic salary to request a bank loan.

During this time we were diagnosed with cancer of my mother. So I had to stop dreaming about a car & started to spend all of my collected money for getting treatments for my mother. We did everything which we can to save her from cancer, but we didn't make it. My mother also had a dream to travel in my own vehicle. But I was failed to make my mother's dream into a reality. Before my mother's alms of the year, I decided to make that dream come true. Again I requested a loan & my request was approved. Then I was able to drive my own dream car in real life. I knew that my mother had blessed me from heaven. If not how can I make my dream real in less than one year?
