For you rich men...

Rich Child of Poor Parents

A small piece for the children who have grown up as rich men in the society...

Since childhood I have done so many below-ordinary things, led a very simple life. Many a times I have been told Your father is a rich man. My answer has always been My dad is a rich man, I am not. Now, my dad is a retired man but I make sure that he continues to be rich (even though I am not rich). I have seen poor parents who sacrificed their lives for the upbringing of their kids. Now, it is so painful to see these kids grew up as super rich men but their parents are still poor.

Always remember... What goes around comes around. The greatest happiness in the world is... Knowing the reason for your parents' happiness is You. Let your parents proudly say... I am rich coz my kids are rich. Trust me, they will never ever make you poor.

Life in a Delhi Metro... (Episode 3)

Sitting in a crowded metro compartment I saw one of our office housekeeping boys in the same compartment. He didn't see me but  I couldn't resist a smile on my face. I recalled a quote which I read somewhere - "A developed country is not a place where the poor have cars, its where the rich use public transport.". My intention is not to prove that I am rich or he is poor. Living in a society who has set classes like high, middle, low etc I bet many (so called) upper class people will not like this encounter. But if you ask me, I was happy to see him. It made me realized we all are same. It made me realized we all are born empty handed and someday we all are going to leave this place empty handed. 

Try this if you have not tried it yet - Know people, make friends with people from different places (states, countries, continents etc), different social backgrounds (rich and poor), different communities.
