THE LIFE OF A HAWKER

THE LIFE OF A HAWKER:

A street hawker is a common sight in our towns and villages. A street hawker goes from one street to another and from one mohalla to another mohalla for selling his article or food stuffs.
 A street hawker usually comes with a basket full of article placed on his head. He hawks his article. Every street hawker brings articlesand eatables of different kinds. Usually in the morning street hawkers come with vegetables and fruits in their baskets. They hawk the things and vegetables which they bring in baskets.
     The people who live in village and towns hear the calls of the street hawker early in the morning. He brings with him fresh fruits  and vegetables. On hearing the voice housewives flock around him. They take from him the things which they need. Street hawkers have to face sometimes very odd customers who go on arguing bargaining about the prices of various commodities. Sometimes he has to bow to the customers by reducing his rates.
 Then there are other street hawkers who come on bicycles loaded with clothes. utensils and other articles of daily need and consumption. 
  All these are no doubt tough jobs. He has to labor a lot in order to earn his living. His profits are very small. He is generally a poor man. His clothes are also dirty. But wit his small income he makes his both ends meet. The way he lifts the heavy load on his head or carries it on a bicycles is really a difficult job.
 Some of the street hawkers  carry on their heads very cheap things. By selling their complete stock they just earn rupee or so. This shows the poor condition of these street hawkers. If a hawker is a little innocent he is teased  by the street urchins. These clever urchins sometimes steal away his pretty articles and things while the poor fellow has to bear the loss.
   On the whole a street hawker 's condition is pitiable because he wanders from morning till evening from place to place in order to earn his daily living. In Pakistan the hawkers are innumerable because by investing less amount of money they start his business. And Pakistan is a country inhabited by poor people. But there is no harm in earning one's living with hard labor. Every individual should earn his own living instead of becoming a burden upon others. It is dignity of labor which we all should respect.......
