Some instances give you lessons for life: Respect Yourself

I had a learning experience two days ago which is still in my mind and I am quite recently glad that I focus on the things around me which are the wellspring of realisation and which incite my reasoning..

I was there before a seller purchasing a bunch of chocolate for my niece . Next to me was an unfortunate lady in filthy, torn clothes with her decent looking child.. The kid seemed to be of around four years.. He was practically occupied with a packet of chips.. Then at a good distance, I saw a couple of NGO individuals distributing clothes and nourishment to the boys in the street .. Having seen foods and stuffs being distributed the kid attempted to go there.. His mom consistently ceased him, the more he tries to escape from his mom's hand the more mom holds his hand tight.. He begins crying at this point.. Mother slaps him and says " Don't go.. Those are for Poors"

Also, to my astonish the kid stops crying and quits focusing on the men there..

The lady caught me watching them and move away before I could offer a chocolate to the kid..

I was completely stunned by this occurrence and Steemit is the first whom I am sharing this..

I learned two things:

  1. Maintain your self regard notwithstanding when the circumstance is extreme

  2. Be glad on what you have as opposed to being unhappy on what you don't have.. Know the value of things you have..

Don't move so fast, Observation is near to experience
