growing
bigger
You like to grow richer,
I like to grow bigger!
When you keep on
gathering more and more
paper and metal and stone -
for fame on a nameplate shown!
I share my take-home
with someone who needs it more
a no one who is to my family
and fond -
and in the process, I grow
bigger
a little beyond than my
family's bound!
Thus while you love to gather
riches,
I love to gather people's smiles
and thus keep redrawing the circle
of what I call my family
bigger and bigger
with every happiness' cry!
And when the call comes,
I'll be the happy the most!
Since, nothing can you really take,
except the satisfaction that lies
inside.
And nothing gives it the way it
gives,
when you know you have touched
another life deep enough,
that your life own has grown richer
far more than what all the treasures
can buy!
Still I say, we are no different -
You and I.
You gather the finite for the
limited,
I gather the infinite for the
unlimited!
And I sincerely hope
that one day your path shall
merge into mine.
That day the little angels,
for whom my efforts aren't rare,
shall smile a little bigger,
and thank a little louder!
because you would also
that day start to care!

My friend! Whomever you may be – I call upon you!
Please join me with some contribution to support education of rural children in India,
whatever is possible from your end.
It may be as little as INR 100, or in some kind.
Even a drop of water is valuable in a world thirsty of education.
I have a campaign running at http://ket.to/bjgRuns4IshaVidhya
Or, you can also donate at http://www.ishavidhya.org/marathon/index.php
You can spread the word, if you feel convinced with what I have written after my personal experience. You can volunteer as well, if you wish.
Thank you! :-)
