I am deeply touched by reading this poem authored by Marian Wright Edelman. We all have God given gifts. And I offer my gift to those whom I serve. As I was growing up I used to listen to my dad chanting in Sanskrit - Ishavasyam idam sarvam yet kinchit jagatyam jagat, tena
tyakten bhungithaha ma groudham kasyaschit dhanam. This universe is pervaded by the Divine treasure. You enjoy the treasure by serving others. Don't covet for wealth that belongs to others. And here is the paradoxical truth:It's by giving we receive.
Aging does stop me from serving others. I an one hundred years old child of God. And I am doing whatever I can to serve others. I will continue walking on this path as long as I can.
Namaste.
