I've always believed that validation is the biggest curse especially in today's world with the addition of social media.
I've encountered many selfless acts in every walk of life like a lady who teaches young children of househelps so the next generation lives a better life.
Gulzar's "तकलीफ खुद ही कम हो गई,
जब अपनों से उम्मीद कम हो गई।" is a good reminder to avoid expectations and in turn attachments not just to loved ones but also to others and to outcomes to our actions.
