Of liquid and dirt.

The other day, i was just walking around a night market to get some groceries. Like every other outings to the venue, i would stumble across people (disabled) who would sit down/ lie down on the floor to beg from the people around them.

This particular guy had only one leg, no fingers, i honestly don't know how he ended up there to beg..

I feel deeply for those who are less fortunate than me, not to say i am very fortunate, well i lead a normal life, sometimes enough for extras, and seeing people who don't have the necessities in life is just, well, .. what we call life i supposed.

Normally when i see old people, or disabled people i try to give as much as i can to them, simply because i am way much better than them. Then there's this thing about syndicates, where the beggars are places by a group of people at a particular place to collect money, so my mom says that we should give them money, as we will then encourage them to beg more. So i thought to myself, so what.. i mean like, it's not like they want to be in that cycle, they can't even help themselves.

If you were carrying hundred bucks in your pocket, on the way to the mall, and you have saved up for months to get that beautiful shirt/shoes/bag/pants that you really love, and on the way there - you came across a frail, old, dirty and smelly men, begging you for food or money.

What would you do?

God said to take care of the less fortunate, have i? i try. But never to the extend to go to a center and help those people who are in need. Just what i can see in front of me. Sometimes i want a designer bag, or some beautiful dainty shirt that cost a bomb, and just one more high heel to complete my shoe cupboard- and i still don't feel contented whilst there are people out there who just want a blanket to keep themselves warm or a decent meal to keep their stomach from eating itself.

It is always best to compare to those who are worst off in life, because seeing things from that perspective, you will then know that our glass is almost full, but sometimes we focus too much on that 5% of emptiness.
At least me, i focus too much on that 5% that i don't have.

Do you? True contentment and satisfaction comes from God ( at least to me ), somehow i feel that i am enough when i set my mind unto Him.

Happy Monday you guys!! Have a wonderful day ahead!! =)
