RE: Musing Posts

I have experienced a very good turning point in life, which has changed me entirely. It happened few years back, when my son was just 2 years old. He was perfectly healthy, and fell sick of normal cold and cough, which soon became critical. And we were in the hospital for 3-4 days. 

At that age, I usually had the perception of to be able to do anything in life, if you have money. I was adamant in nature. And during that time, it hit me big. We reached to every good doctor, called them, few of them told he was in the right course of treatment. However, his condition was not improving. 

Then a nurse advised me to offer some prayers at a particular temple, and told, only a miracle can help us. I felt very handicapped at that time. My vision on wealth / money completely changed during that time. I had heard it many times, but this time I practically felt it. For the first time I prayed and begged something in front of God, with my honest offerings. 

My son survived, and since then I am a changed man. Meaning of life has changed since then as well. I try to help others as much as I can. And I never feel pride for any wealth. Because everything that is in your control, may possibly change entirely in a matter of few minutes. So live the life with affection, relationships, friends. Nothing else matters.
