Miskin Kaya Apa Bezanya?

Well, there's a hell lot's of difference between miskin & kaya but it all depends on rich & poor in what sense when we discuss about this topic. It's not necessarily about monetary wealth. It could be about your healthy, it could be about your social life, it could be about your working lifestyle.

You can be rich AND poor at the same time. You're wealthy young man who only dine imported steak & the finest wine in the house. You earn 5 figures daily without even going to work yourself. Monetary wise Kaya. Of course God is fair if he's there. You as this young man, die at age 30 because of cancer. Miskin in health. Ironic right?

Everyone wants the best of both world but no one wants to compromise to give and not to expect anything in return. In times like now when the economic crisis are bound to hit us in less than 2 months, everyone is scared, everyone is worried that they will lose out if they give more than they receive.

You never lose out when you give more than you receive.

Maybe on your accounts book it does but what you gained from giving is unmeasurable. You can weigh kindness. You can't measure kindness. If you are the hand that stretch out to a drowning man today, you won't know how that drowning man will help you in the future. Even if he doesn't, it does no harm to save someone. Do you always need to charge someone a fair sum of money before you save them?

It does make a difference with you being Miskin or Kaya, and i meant in the sense of kindness towards others. If you have the ability, the capability to give, that doesn't prove that you are far more superior than other people. It simply means that you are blessed with the choice to help other people, and helping other people who needs them are the greatest weatlth in the whole world.

An act of random kindness today, brings smiles and laughter to the face of our children tomorrow.

And perhaps that is the greatest gift we can give to our children, and their children when we're no longer here.

The greatedst wealth is not how much money you have in your bank account or how many condominiums you own, or what car you're driving around town.

The greatest wealth is not how healthy you are when you don't take care of your health, you drink often, sleep late often, smoke often but you still don't die.

The greatest wealth IS the ability you have to give to others, and you choose to give to others your kindness. This is something you can't buy with money. Pure kindness.
