India is filled with diverse cultures, there are various types of food which are served in all households. This story belongs to Aisha, a girl residing in one such village. She was known for her kind heart, curiosity, and a deep love for learning. Aisha’s favorite place to explore was her grandmother’s garden, where rows of vegetables grew tall and vibrant.

One sunny morning, Aisha woke up feeling hungry. She walked into the kitchen, and to her surprise, she found her grandmother preparing her breakfast. The aroma filled the air, making Aisha’s stomach growl even louder.

As Aisha sat at the table, her grandmother smiled and said, “Aisha, do you know how lucky we are to have an abundance of food? There are children in the world who have to suffer from hunger everyday.”

Aisha’s eyes widened, and she asked, “Why, Grandma? Why don’t they have enough food to eat?”

Her grandmother’s face softened with compassion as she explained, “Well,my dear, sometimes it’s because they don’t have enough money to buy food. Other times, it’s due to natural disasters that destroy crops and leave people with little to eat. This used to happen in many villages of Bengal, back in the 1940s.

Aisha listened intently, her heart filled with empathy and curiosity. She realized that the meals she enjoyed each day were not coming for free, instead they were the result of hard work by both her parents and the farmers who grew these crops.

Her grandmother continued, “That’s why it’s crucial to value and not waste the food we have. We must appreciate the efforts of everybody involved in the process to make these meals available to us.”

Aisha nodded, feeling a deep sense of gratitude growing within her. She made a promise that she will never take food for granted. No food wastage became her motto. Over the years, Aisha’s passion for helping those in need grew. She organized food drives, worked in community services and educated people about food importance.

Aisha’s efforts soon caught the attention of our government and she was given many awards and financial support to continue the noble work.

She also understood she should gain more knowledge about this field and gain some power to make her voice reach more people. She started studying law and worked tirelessly to support local farmers, reduce food wastage, and ensure that no one in her community went hungry.

Years later, Aisha became a well-respected advocate for food sustainability and fought tirelessly against hunger. Her compassionate spirit and dedication brought positive changes to countless lives.

So, dear children, let’s be grateful for the food we have, value the efforts of those who provide it, and lend a helping hand to those in need. Together, we can create a world where no one goes to bed hungry, and every meal is a celebration of love.
