Yeh Dil Maange More??

Its only human to want more - more money, better grades, better looks, better clothes, a better shelter, better food, and what not.
I received a forward today, one of the typical 'starved african children' forward. Not having done anything towards promoting their well being, it would definitely be hypocritical if I were to criticize everyone about being as selfish as me.
Well, the first step would definitely be not to waste anything - food, clothes,money.


A story for the inevitable doubt :
There were innumerable starfish lying/slowly dying along the beach of some ocean. A man was systematically picking up them using a hovel and throwing them back to where they belonged - the ocean . A cynic asked - "How in the name of anything are you going to save all of them?? Its just a waste of time!! " .
This person said nothing, just picked up yet another one, made sure it landed in the ocean, and then says - "Made a difference to that one" .
