The Looser Speaks  

Posted by sunny

There is every possibility that I may end up just like the other billions in this world-(self-centred, selfish with the sole aim of earning money to support a lifestyle).But to be honest I don’t want to be just like others. I strongly believe that god blessed human with brains for a purpose and that purpose is to think.

The reason for which I have started hating money is because it is the prime reason for man being selfish. How the hell could we rationalize the millions stomachs that go without two square meals while few spend millions on luxury.Arethey not human? Does they don’t have the right to food? And above all is the government the only one to be blamed? Do the people of this country have no duty towards our fellow countrymen who live their life in despair and poverty? I know a lot of you might say- “why me? I am no millionaire!!I find it difficult to support my own family, please pardon me”. Or “I do carry responsibility of my family and if everyone does so there will not be any poverty.” My only appeal to all these persons is to wake up from the deep slumber. Have you ever that will your present status and lifestyle possible without the solid foundation your parents provided. Would you have become the professionals you are now without the quality education u got? It may sound rude but the answer is a big NO. The point here is opportunity .Opportunity has leaded us to what we are today.

Microsoft‘s ex CEO Mr. Bill Gates once said “If you are born poor then it’s not your mistake, but if you die poor it’s your mistake”. True as it might sound I do believe this quote holds good in an equal opportunistic country. So my appeal to my fellow countrymen would be not to turn a blind eye towards our poor. They are not poor because of their deeds but because of the hundreds of year of suppression.
I don’t ask people to be a social worker.evryone doesn’t have that zeal and courage to be one. All I request is to devote a fraction of what you earn towards charity and see how our country prospers not as a skewed economic power but as a healthy and happy democratic society.

A lot of people who know me may ask “What you have done towards our poor “That’s why I started the article with the heading “A LOOSER SPEAKS”. I know I have not done much social work but I ask everyone around to look deep inside your hearts and think-Are you not missing something in life in spite of the currency notes? Try lending your hand to someone who needs and see a halo of happiness bestowed upon from places unexpected.


P.S.-I will try everything not to be a looser, will you??
