Four Teachers

I always tell my kids, there are 4 teachers in life. Indeed, I was lucky to have all 4 in my life

1. Books
2. Travel
3. People (log)
4. Poverty

Read book everyday, even if its your wedding day. Travel if time and money permits, even a short day trip excursion to nearby places. Aur, insaan is kaainat ki sab se bari kitab hai. And I wish my kids get their share of days in life without a penny in pocket, scratching head to find a way out.

Poverty scares me. It is very daunting. I would not like to wish it on anyone. It may sounds glamorous on paper but I am sure , it is a supremely unpleasant experience!

I am not sure if poverty teaches us a lesson but 'Majboori' or helplessness does.

'O' - I agree with you....

Being a father i do not like to wish for the 4th option for my family, but i have seen and was indeed lucky to have all the four in my life.

I do agree with YOU.
