making a difference

Have your felt pain at the human suffering all around you

An old woman almost stick thin and doubled over due to age walks the road with a bag of vegetables. She stops mid way to rest and take a breath......I wonder if she did not have anyone at home...

The auto comes to a halt near a footpath and I see these three kids of some roadside vendor all dirty with dripping noses. One small "potli" and a few utensils comprise all their worldly assets. Deprived of an education and opportunities I wonder what future are they heading towards.....

We were taught that we should count our blessings and be happy but wonder why I cant feel anything like it.........I feel a funny helplessness for not being able to do anything that makes a difference.
