Today I will start with a quote by the great Karl Marx. “If we have chosen the position in life in which we can most of all work for mankind, no burdens can bow us down, because they are sacrifices for the benefit of all; then we shall experience no petty, limited, selfish joy, but our happiness will belong to millions, our deeds will live on quietly but perpetually at work, and over our ashes will be shed the hot tears of noble people.” So touching is this quote that it helps us to introspect and vouch for a change. I believe everyone should read this quote at least once in a day.
Each word has its own importance and prominence. We all have become money mongers who are lost in this useless race to achieve the unknown. Walking on roads or travelling by bus helps me notice and observe the world around me. Some people really care for the society and are working towards it but on the other hand there are people who are ignorant to all the miseries. It is so beautiful when Marx mentions that if we start sacrificing for others then our joy will be restricted not only to ourselves but to millions around us.

I know it is all easy said than done. Talking philosophically is much easier than acting on it. We are all tied up in our worlds trying to achieve happiness for ourselves and the people around us whom we love. So I personally cannot blame anyone who is not able to work towards the society but can only request that we can take out an hour a week to change things around us then we will start feeling good about ourselves, we will think highly of ourselves. What can you do? In this article I will suggest the first very basic thing which you can do to contribute towards the society. 4 such articles will follow after this which if followed religiously will make you feel good about yourself. Poverty is a big problem in our country and it is heart wrenching to see people begging to earn their living. I have seen people giving two three rupees with grimace on their faces with no sense of compassion. What you can do is not giving them money instead give them food or water which will keep them satisfied throughout the day. Start with this for now and “FEEL GOOD”.
