Well, this year’s topic of Blog Action Day pertains to poverty. Unfortunately, I have not the ability to develop the idea flourish; and here I just want to talk a little of my own thinking, even if my words sound somewhat silly and meaningless… You can discard this post because even I think it's a real trivia.
In my opinion, poverty is a mind state of being unsatisfied. If I think I’m satisfied by something, I’ll not be poverty of it. Maybe many people would believe that kind of thinking would make people achieve more. However, it’s better to be satisfied, or life would sap us up. Try to image, if, people think their work is dull and thus they can’t be satisfied by working, then what to do? Stop work? Or change works? In fact, it’s not easy to live without work, to change is difficult too. Now, the truth is, if you don’t like something, you may do another as a placebo. For example, enjoy the time outside working to release the repression, take a walk, or listen to some peaceful music. Although works fail to make people happy, the others’ would.
Yeah, here, I don’t forget that what the first meaning of “poverty” is, though we, as common people, have no idea on how to improve the bad situation. I think, though one may not give a cent to help others, the one is helpful for that one is satisfied to life; at least, be satisfied to most of life. At this level, it maintains a steady world. So if you are satisfied by your life, you are harmless and have not poverty.
To me, I’m not poverty of most aspects of life. Sometimes even a “small thing” can make me joyful. Such satisfaction is very precious. No more wants, no more disappointments, and it leads me a peaceful life.
