The day of silence

Rizwan lived in a small village. His parents loved him dearly . He actively took part in sports. Everyone in the village liked him for his good manners. Rizwan  could not hear since birth.when he turned three a doctor advised his parents to help Rizwan learn sign language . Thus Rizwan learnt sign language in a few weeks. Now he was very happy because he was able to communicate with his parents. This made Rizwan feel unhappy. His close friend Mumtaz noticed Rizwan's unrest. He decided to set the things right . He requested his father to arrange a festival in honour of people who could not hear. During that whole day everyone in the town would have to wear earplugs.

People liked the idea. The day became known as the day of silence '. When it arrived everyone stuck plugs in their ears . That day was filled with fun games and laughter. As the hours passed people knew how different life was when they could not hear anything.yet Rizwan could do everything that little boy did. The only difference was that he could only talk

through sign language. On the day of silence Rizwan won many games. That day people realized that he should be treated just like any other little boy. Everyone has some special talent and should be given an equal chance.
