To the world you might be one person. But,
To one flood victim you might be the world
Let us Come Forward & Bridge the Difference
This life is short, the vanities of the world are transient, but they alone live who live for others, the rest are more dead than alive.
You cannot help anyone, you can only serve: serve the children of the Lord, serve the Lord himself, if you have the privilege. If the Lord grants that you can help anyone of His children, blessed you are…
– Swami Vivekananda
