Durga Kami, 68, is probably the oldest student in Nepal.
“To forget my sorrows I go to school,” Kami, one of the oldest students in Nepal, told Reuters in the classroom where he studies alongside 14- and 15-year-olds.

Poverty prevented Kami from finishing his studies as a child and achieving his goal of becoming a teacher. Now 68, the father of six and grandfather of eight goes to school six days a week, to complete his studies and escape a lonely home life following the death of his wife.
He now goes to the school daily with a walking stick in a school uniform that includes grey trousers, blue striped tie and white shirt.
Aren't you inspired?? Is there any unfulfilled desires of you? Start making it.
