Why I have selected this topic ?Well I have no clear projection for this but yes somewhere deep down I have a strong will to nurture society by contributing my time for improving the general conditions and making it better place to live. There are certain facts of life which every human being has to go through - study, finding a job, finding a partner, becoming parents, fulfilling general needs of family etc. But is this really sufficient for us or does it make our life meaningful ? Answer is big 'NO'. These things are not basic aim of life these are just favorable conditions which can help you to grow and fulfill your actual purpose of life.
Am still wondering why exactly I was sent on this EARTH for when am just doing what every other person is doing. Today I placed same question to my husband - 'Why I feel am slogging my days ahead rather then living them fully?' Like every time, he advised me with few options by which I can make a difference and one of them is to start blogging for things which I feel strongly need to be improved in society. Over the time at least I will be able to shape my desire and later actualize it.
Child Begging
It is almost a routine - while driving to or back from office I saw so many small kids 'begging' at traffic signal. Most of the time they are getting snubbed . All we do is to see them on signals and just say 'How can I help all of them?' Most of the time, people advice me not to give them money but my heart cry at their condition and then emotional quotient force me to give few coins or notes to them. I have even purchased many times their full bunch of balloons and gift it to my near and dear kids .Sometime I wonder - how these kids landed to such a situation ? Most of them are run-away child from their home in seek of money or freedom. Here they may have got into trap of gangs who promote begging and then it's never ending loop. Can't we do something about this ? I seriously think that any effort be it big or small do bring a change for them. What exactly is solution for this ? Human Trafficking . But how well it will be to force beggars to jail and later make it their 2nd home. Still this question is open in my mind and am looking for an answer ??

Child Labour
This is such a common scenario now days which starts from our own home where many of us have employed small kids for various services which I strictly object to. This is a human right issue and a serious problem for society. These small kids are hope for tomorrow and if they won't get chance to study it will lead to lot of negativity in society like murder, theft, stealing, begging etc. Schooling is very important part of one's life as your foundation is created over there and after that whatever comes you judge based on your base deployed .Worst scenario of child labour is seen in north part of India where it is accepted practice. I have never seen any kid working with his/her own will. Either he/she is forced by family to increase source of income or is forced by life. During my childhood I heard story of a monster who use to eat small kids and this is exactly what we are doing . I have no power in society to object this in totality but all I can do as a starting point is to pledge not to employ ever any child below age of 14. It is serious offense and factories employing small kids usually find way of bypassing child labour rules by declaring child as some distant relative. So all law made to remove this practice is now days is just existing for the sake of name. I really don't know where we all are going. At one point of life we want to be generous, helpful & good human being and just across the road we cover our face and start employing kids. Least we could do to them is to empathize them.
