Handupola
Handupola is a small village situated in Kurunegala district. Nearest towns to the Handupola are Dodangaslanda, Melsiripura and Gokarella. There are two parts in Handpola and these two parts are called "Pahala handupola" and "Ihala handupola". People in this village are realatively poor and uneducated. But some people have very good education and doing very good jobs in goverment and private organizations. There are about 40 familied in this small village and their major problem are lacking a proper transport system, damaged roads and drinking water. During the hot season, these people find it very difficult to find water as most of the water resources like tanks and wells dry out. About 5 years ago, villagers themselves started a new water-project which could supply water for almost all the families in the area. But that programme fell apart as the water motor broke down and afterthat they couldn't get that motor fixed up due to lack of money. As the water-project fell apart, they had to get back to their earlier ways of getting water. And also, there is only a single bus serving in this area and it has been a huge problem for all the villagers. This bus has been serving these people for about 18 years. Nonetheless, villagers have now got used to the time schedule of this bus and they plan their daily routine in line with the bus schedule. However, almost all the villagers have atleast a moto bike and therefore they get their transport need fulfilled with whatever the vehicle they have.

Success in life through courage and decision making
The success that we gain in our life has nothing to do with God. Some people believe that we get everything because of God. It is true that some people in this world are not as fortunate as some others are. A certain amount of luck actually affects our success and life. But it doesn’t mean that we should only believe in luck. We should not base our lives on luck. Success is all about commitment and effort. We never get all the things for granted. Some people believe that all things that they have achieved in their lives have been given by god. They themselves underestimate their efforts. We should stop letting others to decide our success and life. We ourselves should decide the direction towards which our lives are heading. To do that, we should have courage and decision making ability. DECISION MAKING

Why I mentioned decision-making ability is that making correct decisions at the correct time is a deciding factor in our life. If you look back on life, you might be able to see that how your decisions have influenced to your life. It is understandable that not on every occasion can we make right decisions. Nobody in this world can make decisions in that way. When we get ourselves into trouble in making bad decisions, we should have the self-confidence to get over that problem and learn a lesson. And the most important thing is not making the mistake time and time again. If you make the same mistake often, it means that you cannot succeed in anything. BEING COURAGEOUS

Other most important thing is being courageous. No matter how bad the situation is, we should be able to get through that particular period without being dissatisfied with the life. If dissatisfaction sets in us, we cannot move ahead with determination. What most people do is that when they get into a difficult situation they tend to lose their self-confidence and determination. In the end, they end up causing more problems to their lives. First and foremost, we should understand that nobody in this world have achieved their objectives without going through bad periods. When we are going through difficult period in our life, we should figure out what the actual problems are what the possible solutions are. We should not look at the problem as a life-ending problem. There is always a solution for a problem. Some people think that not being able to get through a crucial examination is the end of their life. Sometimes failures guide us to find other opportunities available and maybe we end in a better situation. If you go through the biography of most successful people in the world, you will be able to see that they have both made mistakes and gone through very difficult periods some time in their life. When we are facing a problem, we feel that it is the biggest problem that any human being could ever face. Insert non-formatted text here
