Lila just told me that father was drinking again and he did not even bother to find a job to support the family. When he was drunk, he started shouting and hitting mum. Mum's health worsened by the days. Our family was struggling very hard to live on. It seemed like, as the only son of the family, I would have to find a job.
Ramu just updated me that a factory was being built and starting up. All of us should have no problem getting jobs there to support our families. Wondered if this was true? Else, I have to travel to Bombay to look for a high-salary job, enough to cope with all the family expenses.
If I go to Bombay, Lila would be left to fend for herself and take care of the family. But ... if I stay on in the village, we would continue to struggle and there might not be food on the table soon. God - please tell me what should I do? Please show me the right path. It is tough to make a perfect decision at this point of time.
What matters now is to earn enough money for the entire family and keep the family intact! I will fly to Bombay tomorrow. It should be a fresh start for everyone and I will return with my head high...

I feel that this is a good insight of Hari's thoughts.It descibes his needs to get a job that can support his whole family, and the reason for him to write the journal entry is there. However, there is a slight problem - he is going to FLY to bombay?
