Try not to become a man of success but
a man of value.
– Albert Einstein
Imagine a world with perfection in which everyone were enjoying the day. No one is hungry and everyone behaves friendly, kind and humble to each other. There is no war, there are no diseases, everybody were healthy and wealthy. A world without hunger and starvation wherever you see. A world with happiness all around in which people never work and never create slaves of themselves too. A very pleasing ambiance throughout the world with a guarantee that there is no harm and only truism.
All these things will be good to read in fantasy stories and some meditation notes. But earth is a mixture of joy and sorrow, you just can’t take happiness altogether which may end in hating the happiness also. Nature have made a brilliant cycle which keep us get moving. We have a greater responsibility to lead this life and give back nature a better generation next to us. Our birth and death is been decided by nature we have a simple opportunity to play in between. Most of us never think about this were we never know many people who were blend to this fact.
