What could you think about a child ,who was born three months after the death of his father. Born prematurely, he was a small child; his mother said that he could have fit inside a quart mug.
When He was three, his mother remarried and went to live with her new husband, leaving her son in the care of his maternal grandmother,Began his schooling in the village schools.
When he was 15 yrs, his step father dies and his mother came back & removed him from school and attempted to make a farmer of him. He was, thoroughly unhappy with the work, than one of his high school teacher bring him back to school to complete his education.
At the age of 19 he falls in love, romanced for a year, get engaged to his beloved, as he became engrossed in his studies, the romance cooled & she left him & married someone else and thereafter he never married
Born so unlucky so much hardship for survival & education what can you expect that child to do & achieved in life.
He described universal gravitation (Gravity) and the three laws of motion, invented the reflecting telescope & so many contributions to mathematics Yes we r talking of Sir Isaac NewtonHe did not hide behind the circumstances and become such a great man
