I always used to question myself and wonder what I did to deserve more in life compared to the toddler with a baby on her shoulder begging for money or the family sleeping on the platform or a malnourished kid in some remote part of the world or living in constant threat of life etc. I would feel very disturbed especially at the signals when I see the kids.
Good or bad, I don’t feel that disturbed now – I guess I’ve started accepting my limitations in terms of what I can actually do. I am learning to just do my best! :-) I would strongly encourage everyone to think beyond ourselves and look around us to help others – maybe our friends, maybe our relatives, maybe a stranger … it doesn’t always have to be money; it could be time, it could me advice, it could be blood, it could be lending a shoulder, it could be being a rock etc. Personally compassion helps me more than I would expect, at times I am astonished by what I get back.
Kindness in words creates confidence. Kindness in thinking creates profoundness. Kindness in giving creates love.
Life is sacred. Celebrate life. Care for others and share whatever you have with those less fortunate than you.
