JUST A MINUTE!

No one ever asked to be born in a slum and eat as little as porridge for dinner everyday. No one asked to be born blind and have to struggle half their lives missing one important sense. No one signed up to have a drug addict mum and neither did anyone enroll in having an alcoholic father. All these things happen to us in default and not exactly something we plan nine months before we show up to everyone else on Mother Earth.
Bad things happen to good people and so it is not always that they asked for it. Even that cleaner has a vision and would want more for herself just like you. She admires you as you park you car and hopes to get there some day. The shopkeeper would want to open his supermarket and so does the mechanic who fixes your car and you have never spotted him in any clean clothes.
The less fortunate also discriminate against their high social class friends because they believe that those people are boastful and a bunch of snobs because they can afford a good car and nice apartment in the surburbs. The richer man is one who has character and attracts people by his aura of a good spirit and not necessarily by earthly treasures.
Most of us if we are all stripped to pure nakedness with no money, no job and no wealth, we would only have our names stuck on us and no character whatsoever. Its sad that they are people who classify themselves by their status and not by their deeds. I am poor, I live in the filthy slums, so I am less fortunate but what else is there about you? I am rich, I own half the middle sized companies in the county, I have four cars but what else are you all about?
I try everyday to be good to people around despite my status. I genuinely respect the housegirls because the work they do make our lives a little easier to bear. I say hi to the taxi man everyday because maybe that hi makes him feel like a person and not someone who is on and off driving people from one destination to another. We are human beings at the end of the day and how you treat others depicts who  you really are at the end of the day.
NOTE: You have the ability to give so much to the world by emitting feelings of love and well being, despite what is happening around you.
