Shweta ji.. You did distinguish so nicely, who is rich and who is poor. I appreciate ur comments.. we cant igone the real differences between " rich and poor"

When you're rich . . .
You write off your charity in taxes.
When you're poor . . .You look toward charity to help pay off your taxes.
​
When you're rich . . .
You get praise and adoration for finding shrewd new ways to save money.
When you're poor . . .
You go to jail for it.

When you're rich . . .
You get your dog a rabies shot.
When you're poor . . .
You shoot your dog when it gets rabies.

When you're rich . . .
Attending social functions and drinking brandy is how you stay in power.
When you're poor . . .
You actually work for a living.

When you're rich . . .
You take long vacations from your hectic life of drinking brandy and travel to exotic countries.
When you're poor . . .
You catch an exotic disease from some other country and can't even get a sick day.

When you're rich . . .
You complain about how "lazy" all those "poor" people are.
When you're poor . . .
You're too busy working to even complain.

When you're rich . . .
You can rest easy that your children will be financially successful throughout life.
When you're poor . . .
You might be able to get on welfare if you have a seventh child with your wife.

WHO IS RICH

&WHO IS POOR​




One day



The father of a very wealthy family took his son on a trip to the country with the express purpose of showing him how poor people live​






They spent a couple of days and nights on the farm of what would be considered a very poor family



Ontheir return from their trip, the father asked his son

How was the trip?
It was great, Dad.
Did you see how poor people live?the father asked.
Oh yeah,said the son.So, tell me, what you learned from the trip? asked the father.



The son answered:

Isawthat we have one dog and they had four.
We have a pool that reaches to the middle of our garden and they have a creek that has no end…



…We have imported lanterns in our garden and they have the stars at night.
Our patio reaches to the front yard and they have the whole horizon.
We have a small piece of land to live on and they have fields that go beyond



…We have servants who serve us, but they serve others.
We buy our food, but they grow theirs.
We have walls around our property to protect us; they have friends to protect them



Theboy's father was speechless


Then his son added,


Thanks Dad for showing me how poor we are​




Isn'tperspective a wonderful thing?

Makes you wonder what would happen if we all gave thanks for everything we have, instead of worrying about what we don't have




Appreciateevery single thing you have!​

Sanjeev g this is also very well said as like shweta g did!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
everybody knows the fact that we should appreciate things which we have .but the thing is that we do not realize it by examples from the books or net.why we enjoy jagjit singh gazals because we relate ourselves to them.mostly its our own personal experiences or the pain or suffering of people around you which make u appreciate persons,health and the things u have .

different in my case

i appreciate the things i dont have ......

like i used to appreciate blackberry phone of my freind but the moment i own it i feel its bekaar raddi .. reliance jaisa hi hein ..
there have been so many instances in life when i own something and i never appreciated it .. it is like the things looses the importance when u start owning it ...

this is true uptil now .. may in future i will start appreciating what i have .. but i think its very difficult...
my bhabhi used to say my life is best .. but i feel its okkk...
using gym .. swimming in pool....going to beaches .. baar .. drinks some times i feel they are my birth right

An honest reply Naveen, and I agree it is also a general tendency among many a people to feel somewhere within, a disliking for or a relatively lesser liking for some thing which we used to appreciate a lot when it was not with us. All the earlier desperation seems to be swallowed by mere possession of that !

And why I think this happens is that we are easily fascinated by every newer, relatively more appreciable thing and fall for that easily. And then there starts a new journey to seek possession of that newly discovered delight !

But this isnt an applaudable tendency if this goes beyond a limit. One must be open to accept newer things, but at the same time he must not discard his present collections just because he finds them not too good today !

It makes life difficult and calculative. Life is meant to be free flowing and shining either with or without these newer worldly possessions. Happiness is not something which stems out of owning something .... it comes from within ...... we must learn to make ourselves happy naturally and simply !:):)

Sorry for being a critic here :)

What i mean by my post is that if we don't try to discourage someone by all these mothods that is another aspect of appreciation.

Appreciation doesn't mean that we must say a few words but appreciation should be evident from our deeds and behaviour towards others. :)

Which methods ? Do you want to say that I discourage people or you are talking about it in general ?

Anyways, as regards to your view that appreciation need not be vocal or written, I have also mentioned this point in one of my post here. Appreciation is not about flattering or mentioning it again and again. Its a feeling most importantly.

Still, we must not refrain ourselves all together from making our silent appreciation vocal and evident, at times it should be conveyed too :)
 
sabse badiya matlab batya gaya hai Appreciation kaa niche likhi lines me

1 ye nazariya bhi hai jindgi ko dekhne kaa :tamatar





matlab hume aisa nahi kerna chahiye ;)
