Poverty.....a problem of mentality!

Clicking pictures of poverty stricken folks and posting it on social networking sites have become dime a dozen. Atleast it is attracting our mind towards them, which otherwise we neglect!
Observing a poor girl who goes to school for the name sake and unaware even about her academic subjects!
Observing a godforsaken lady who acts as if pragnent, standing in a traffic signal, pinning a hope of gaining sympathy and pecuniary benefits, which otherwise we ignore!
Noticing a teenager boy running after you for earning a sinctilla of money, in the name of paying the school fees, and his intentions are of consuming intoxicated items, which otherwise we ignore!
Observing a handicapped man, keeping a picture of god with him, begging in the name of god, and simply not doing anything for earning bread and butter, which otherwise we ignore!
Donating chillars or notes can't help them in a long run. How far food providing schemes will benefit them is wholly dependent upon the incumbent of a particular political party.
It is a problem of mentality and not of poverty, it's a voluntary acceptance to the life God has cursed them with. Not bothering about the quality of life, they all are just living the today's life, totally unaware of tomorrow.
With the pace of time, standard increases, whether it is about person's lifestyle, his value addition, technology, or any other thing (for the people passionately seek to enhance their standards). While life remains static for the folks who are happy with their current circumstances. You live a life you want to! Choice is all yours, who you want to be like. God has cursed or blessed, it is a mere disillusion and an excuse of escaping from hardwork. You are the only one who can convert it into a blessing or a curse.
