Working hard from dawn to dusk for livelihood.
Many of us are lucky enough to have at least food to eat, clothes to wear and house to live in. The good deeds done by our elders might have helped us with these comforts in our life. We should be happy with what we have and pay our respects to God for giving us His blessings. Let us continue the good deeds done by our elders so that our next generations will also have His blessings.There are many people who are not able to have two square meals a day. Many days they have to sleep with the half-empty stomach. They don't even have a bedsheet to protect them from cold. They feel bad that they even could not give good clothes to their family members. There are many people like this and we feel pity when we see such people. They will be working from dawn to dusk to make some money to feed their family members. But some days they don't even get work to earn. They start their struggle from dawn and continue up to dusk but their efforts go in vain.
It is unfortunate that crores of rupees are lying in the bank accounts of some people. But some people are suffering badly for their livelihood. The gap between the haves and have nots is increasing. There is no improvement in the lives of such people. Almost 7000 people a day are dying due to hunger in our country. India holds the rank of 103 on the Global Hunger Index.
On this day, the new year day, let us take a pledge that we will help at least one family for their one-day food so that many such people will have a good meal every day.
