Looking beyond the boundaries............

Long time back I started with BLOGS and promised myself that I will write at least one BLOG per week, when I started at it I was pretty confident that I will do it but alas! I never knew that I am so busy. Anyway after a long time I am absolutely free in the office so having all the time to sit and write about something.....

A thought which has always troubled me is troubling me till date.Every day I start my day by getting out of my PG accomodation and looking all around for an auto rickshaw. Right in front of my gate I could see series of auto rickshaws. I hire one of them and start for my office. But to my surprise there are some people who start their day from the footpath and end it there which I could observe once I am back from the office in the evening.

Of late I have realized that every person has become so involved in his/her own self that they hardly get the time to think of people who would prefer to die than to live because of their circumstances. I can spot out the beggars sitting along roadside and their diseases as well and every day I ask a question to myself what am I doing for these miserable people except looking at them and having pity over their condition? Looking at them the usual remark that comes from a person is that that these people are used to it and they should not be given anything coz that will promote them. But has anybody thought of those disabled people who have been deserted by their family members and they have no other option left except to survive on few coins given to them by some large hearted people? Has anybody bothered to look at their craving eyes which will ask you to stop there and atleast talk to them for few minutes but who on earth has got time to waste over them. I vow everyday to atleast think about it and take a step but everyday is just another day coz I am also like others am also lost in my own materialistic world and hardly get time even to think about it........At the end of the day I am happy and satisfied that I am not one among them......
