I wanted to share below link, as it has some amazing quotes. It got me thinking, because I heard people complain the other day about weather and some trivial things. Honestly, I wish most people knew how lucky they are compared to most people in this world, who barely survive on 1$ a day. If we all had more respect and tolerance for others, this world would be much better place.

Though its not in the list, but my FAVORITE quote ever "Racism is the worst disease"

Always respect.

I heard yesterday on radio: If you have a car, and you can go shopping with it, you in the top 10% in the World.

That is probably true. You know what always used to make me upset bro? You see these lavish fountains around the world, like in Dubai, Saudi Arabia, Argentina, etc and then I think to myself how many poor kids die every day because they dont have clean water to drink. Same with food, so much gets thrown away, yet so many people starve. So upsetting, but sadly, thats the world we live in...it seems to be more important to show off, rather than do the right thing.

You know, I always try to inspire people to help, no matter how, if they can. I been sponsoring different children for probably 15 years through organization called World Vision here in Canada and used to be 40, then 45, now its 50$ a month. I had seen that money change lives of 4 kids so far. And to me, if I was not giving that money, I probably would have wasted it on something trivial/stupid.

So, I say, always be kind, always try to help. Im not really religious person, but I do believe in Karma, it all comes back, whether you do good, or bad.

It's truly heartbreaking how disparities like these exist in the world. The contrast between opulence and scarcity is stark, and it's a reminder of the importance of being mindful and compassionate. The act of giving back, whether through sponsorships or other means, as you have done, can create such a profound impact. And you're right—if more people focused on helping rather than showing off, we could alleviate a lot of the world's suffering.

It's like how even simple things, like parents taking an active role in their child's development with speech therapy at home, can make a huge difference. When we invest time and resources into helping others, whether it's kids struggling with access to food and water or kids needing support with their speech, the ripple effect of that kindness can change lives for the better. Karma or not, doing good always matters.

100%. I always go by mentality that we should never judge anything or anyone. Everyone in this world had a story, no matter who they are or where they come from...but as old saying goes, most people listen to respond, not to understand.
