I am so worried about my father’s silence towards me” said Fedolia (3 rd from right) a YG2 member of Tondiarpet community. she further narrated “Long time ago due to some understandings between me and my father, he stopped talking with me , initially I felt nothing but when the days ran faster His silence towards me created a huge depression in my heart , I started to cry daily , I was seeking for his love and care, I remained helpless, I can’t share this with anyone ,because if I shared, others may think bad of me ,and also I don’t have a trustable person to share my worries. I feel jealous when my friends in locality spent time with their father. As I can’t even talk single word with my father, although we live under a single roof and face each other every day, I feel like we are separated by a long distance.”
One fine day one of my neighbor introduced me to YG2 meeting. Where I found many girls like me who sing and share their opinions. I too want to live like them but depression in my hear restricted me to do. But I started to participate in YG2 meetings regularly, there I got new friends which reduced my depression to some extent, however the main wound was not cured. The sister who teaches stories and values was so kind and I saw some hope in her. I decided to talk about my worries to her and she prayed for my problem and I prayed to make my dad to speak with me.
I was stunned that God heard my prayer, last week my father spoke with me, I too started to live like other young girls in our area, words can’t explain my happiness, all this happened because of my participation in YG2”.
