Meet my friend Andy Dufresne!
- His wife cheated on him.
- He was convicted for the crime he never committed.
- He was imprisoned in Shawshank for two life sentences, after he was convicted of murder of his wife and her lover.
- When he entered Shawshank, he felt despondent without almost any hope of getting out, these circumstances would certainly break any of us, but not to my friend, Andy.
- He started closely observing his surroundings, and eventually found a way – The wall of freedom.
- Andy slowly started chipping-away the wall (with whatever little tool he could arrange).
- He was beaten, bullied , tortured, and even raped by few of the fellow inmates.
- Andy never complained. Never revealed his plans even to his closest buddy (Red).
- Andy went against the crowd, when all his friends were minding their own business at the roof.
- He took up the risks and even offered to provide solution to the officer on how to get a decent tax-cuts.
- He even won the trust of the Christian Wardon.
- All through the ups and downs, he remained stoic. Remained relentlessly persistent – โYou either get busy living, or get busy dying.โ
- Finally, after 20 years of persistence, Andy escaped Shawshank.
- And with that, Andy tunneled away to the freedom, he truely deserved.
MY BIGGESTย lesson here is
That, You’re a prisoner of your own mind. No matter what, keep digging.
