Tashi is his parents' only hope. They have placed so much hope in him. They wished him to grow up quickly and support them in their greying years. They have sacrificed many things so that he will go to a school and get a decent education. Sometimes they used to skip meals, and at other times they would forego some luxury, or be a little tight on their spending so that Tashi has enough for pocket money. In this way twelve years of school was over plus three more years of university education. Now time has come for Tashi to pay his parents' back. He has to find a job somewhere and start earning for them and for himself. Dharamsala, the seat of the Tibetan government in exile is the first thing in his mind. That is where he has the best chance. He made the first important journey there to start his life. Something he hasn't imagined lies in wait for him. He goes to every department, from Sherig to Nangsig and finds not a single chair vacant. It was a 'full house' everywhere. As if that was not enough, one or two vacancies that crop up here and there has a beeline of applicants, all daring, promising and qualified like him. 'People have to fight real hard to make a living in this part of the world'. This is the conclusion he drew from his visit to Dharamsala in search for a job. If this is how the things are around here, he cannot stupidly stick to this place and see himself wasting his education walking up and down the narrow streets of colourful Mcleod. Let these westerners walk around. It amuses them; it is new and different for them. But he has got things to do. He has his old parents to look after. He has promises to keep for them. He wished he could serve his government. He wished he could work in the Tibetan community so that his energy doesn't seep into anywhere else. But he found there is no space for everybody. Too many 'unemployed' and too little 'employments'. He made up his mind and went to a nearby phone booth to make a call to his old school friend in the U.S. There at least he will not be jobless. There at least he can keep his parents' hope alive.
