We are lucky, aren’t we..??

I never thought I would ever think like this but now I do - I am a lucky person. I am not too wealthy or talented but somehow I have realized this….I have a good home, a caring family, good health, loads of friends and still I grumble about not having enough…..

Until now I never thought there was something wrong about that, but now all of a sudden I have been hit by this realization that when I am grumbling about not having enough, there are like millions of people or so who don’t even get two square meals a day…There are children even younger than me who work to earn the bread for the family when they should actually be enjoying life and getting a proper education…I would like to help them all but what can I do…??It isn’t in the grasp of a single person to change the proceedings of the entire world...Only thing that we can do is thank God for our blessed lives and pray for the less-fortunate. Even prayers from a true heart can work miracles…

Realisation

Someone once told me that I was poor-

But I just called him an idiot and send him away

Because I thought wealth meant money and nothing else..

With the years flying by leaving behind fewer familiar faces,

I realize that that someone was correct…

I was ignorant about the fact that character and relationships are more precious

compared to money which is nothing but paper!

You are remembered by the deeds you do and the lives you touch,

Not by the bundles of money which could easily be lost in a flame…

Friendships u make and how you carry on with it,how you face difficulties,

all these and much more make up the real you..

Even the most minute help would be enough

To change someone’s life if given at the right time.

Now that I have chanced upon this knowledge,

I realse how wrong I was and how hard I need to work to prove him wrong……
