It’s Good to be Good!
Being good comes
naturally to us. Then, we grow up! Corrupted by the ways of the society, we
tend to tweak our perspective which is more suited to our convenience. We look
for what we stand to gain from each and every action of ours.
Is there really anything
for us in being good natured? Yes there is. It is said as we grow old; an
unaccounted guilt grows in us, for the various deeds of ours – small or big.
Being selflessly good wipes out a great deal of this guilt. This might be the
reason why people who have scaled great heights in life turn to philanthropy in
the twilight of their lives.
No favour goes
unreturned. It might not fit in to our frame work of instant gratification, but
it definitely comes around. Moreover, our small deeds do make the world a
better place. Pass around a smile, you get a smile back. Put on a smirk and u
will be smirked at. The choice is always yours.
A selfless action gives
as much joy to the doer as to the person who experiences it. It gives us the
luxury of feeling good about ourselves without putting in a great deal of
effort. It can be chipping in for a friend in time of need or as simple as
giving away a bus seat for an elderly person. In our busy- to- breath lives, these
little deeds of heart will make us feel alive.
Let’s do our bit and
make the world a better place to live...for you and for me and for every one J

ReplyDeletePerhaps, that 'unaccounted guilt' you speak about explains what some of the most crooked people I know are also most religious. :)
