Thoughts of poverty
One of man’s basic fears is poverty. No doubt poverty brings with it great agony. But every time we think of the misery that poverty might bring into our life we actually become poor and we experience exactly the same misery that actual poverty brings with it.
So if say I think of poverty ten times during a day, I undergo for ten times the same misery that actual poverty carries with it!
So isn’t it better to wait for the actual poverty to happen in our life instead of living it day in and day out in our thoughts?!
And the situation appears all the more funny when it is realised that the same poverty that I keep on living in my thoughts throughout my life, till death brings an end to it, actually might never become a reality!
