Daily Prompts- The philanthropist

Daily prompts, Sadje's View

“Could you please drop this quixotic attitude towards life”

Many told him that the way to successful life lay in excelling

Earning trophies in sports or studies because no one cared

If you are a caring person willing to go there extra mile to help someone

But his antipathy towards all worldly goals was clear

In a not so subtle way, he rejected all the advice, new and old

Unperturbed by the criticism he went on his merry way

Helping scores of fellow humans in his journey in life

When he departed this world, thousands mourned his passing

Many many more than a wealthy or successful man would ever have had

( I wrote this poem with one particular person in mind, Edhi, the creator of Edhi foundation. He was from very humble origin and established a network of country-wide orphanages and homes solely by donations from ordinary people)

I am writing to express my opinion, share my experiences and to maybe provide some insight. My blog is addressing women at 50 ( but men are welcome to read my posts) ,their issues and the questions that come up at this stage in life. I don’t aim to teach, but to learn together.
