Anna daataa sukhee bhava!

What a statement... how profound is the experience when we give food to someone that is yearning for it... starving the whole day... imagine it being a kid... starving the whole day and working for food in the same way as an adult does... WHY SHOULD IT HAPPEN...

Some good souls have started doing something good about this. They are the Akshayapatra Foundation. I happened to stumble upon it when someone from the foundation sent an email to a group that I was a member too... I feel good to have come across this and shared it with some friends. The footer which is suggested in their website caught my attention very well.. Here it is...

If you are thinking a year ahead, sow seed.
If you are thinking ten years ahead, plant a tree.
If you are thinking one hundred years ahead, educate the people.
