In a world of capitalism and materialism, the poor gets poorer faster and the rich, well, we know.
So we have to help them, but why? Many of us are hoarding our monies and trying to get to the top and earn more money. But can we bring our monies to our grave? Or personal belongings like cars and houses 6 feet underground too?
Perhaps you have just bought the latest and a very expensive mobile phone and raring to use and admire it all the times, but after a few weeks, you would have treat it like any other old belongings. So in other words, just buy what you really need. After all, we are all borrowers of life to our planet and can never return anything to it. But you may think, why shouldn’t we live as hedonists as we are wired to? Well, some of our hedonistic pleasures may be harmful to our planet and possibly, inhabitable to our future generations.
We want to be joyful and happy and free of sorrow and money can’t buy us happiness as you may heard of it countless time. True it may buy you almost anything you desire but how about using it to buy a meal for the impoverished child 
and make a difference not only to your consciousness, but also to her stomach even for a day. Please visit http://www.thehungersite.com/clickToGive/home.faces?siteId=1 if you have the time even for a glance. Prove your worth as a worthy humane human being. Its better to overreact and laugh out later rather than not doing anything and despair for the rest of your life. (Taken from MGS Portable) We have no wish to hear another news of children dying of hunger while some of us are complaining their food on the table are not sumptuous enough.
But again, you may retort that you are penniless. So in order to retort your next excuse, I shall give some advice on shopping. Try ebay, many of the goods there especially clothings and electronic accessories (PSP accessories) are just a staggering fraction of the prices seen in your local shops. But remember to add up the shipping charges and always ask yourself whether you REALLY need the items you WANT to purchase. Anyway, here is a site where not only cheap swimwear and nice accessories are available, you can also do a part of your bit for the environment by buying from the site too. Note that I am in no ways affiliated to any of the sites I am promoting. After you get the shipment, remember to keep the envelope and the plastic bags for recycling later. If you are going to do your bit for the world, might as well do it all the way as the Chinese saying goes, accompany the Buddha all the way to the west.
But in the end, you may want to ask witfm, what’s in it for me? You will find the answers in many years later, or a few months for some of you. So make a difference, be different, differentiate yourself from the masses, and know what is really to be different and the true inner you that you may not have found out. But can you really do it, that’s another different question for another day……
Thank you for your time to view this post.
