True Richness means

An experience is enough to change you and your perspective toward the world. 

It was July 2018 When I saw her first time. A small 4 years old girl rich from the heart but little poor. As her family uses to work in construction as labour. And her home was just outside my mess and one day I saw her eat a dry roti and I had just eaten a nice breakfast which also I was unhappy. Seeing her made me realize life is so unequal and the fact I could not do anything great but follow my tradition, I bought her Frooti and Parle-G and left for college. And I was just wondering how life and things value in life change as per our wallet size. For a few days, I did not see her. But one day In the morning it was Sunday So go to mess a little late I saw her running towards me. She was not wearing any shoes running on a hopeless road towards an unknown person with a smile that can heal someone in minutes I would say made my day. I pick her up to ask her name Neha and she reminds me of My sister Prachi she uses to run in the same when I use to come back from school. I had nothing to give her so ask her if she had breakfast and she said yes. I took her to drop her at his home and Ask them to stay there and not run and said bye and went to the mess and had my breakfast and came back. She was standing there with a Good day biscuit packet. She gave the packet to me. I didn't take it but said thank you because she made me realize the truth of donation or true richness She was ready to give me what she had in total and I give her the things which I could easily give someone. And I say myself a good person for just donating some money. Not at all, she is the true donor... 
I left for Delhi the same day in the evening and this time I did not give all my savings. I saved some money for her to give her some footwear and a good book. But what to do in life God always stands against my idea. When came back to Dharwad I saw there was no one at home when I asked my mess uncle. He told me they left work done on the site. I was a little disheartened but life is all about moving on.  But after a few weeks, I saw her going to a shop with her brother and she recognises me and said Bhai and waved at me I was also going to shop. So I pick her up and I bought her Chocolate and Frooti and then I said bye and it was the last time I saw her. 

God at least gave me the chance to fulfil my thought in very little but I was satisfied for that day.
I remember My Father Told me Ones We do not Help Someone Without A motive. My Motive was my Happiness and satisfaction.

Things I learnt from her were happiness can come in less also. And selflessness and also life is about sharing even if you have nothing. 
She was ready to give me her Good day biscuits without thinking about how hard she gets it. With a smile. 
Money is important but value and character are what make you a truly rich person. 
How to be satisfied with your current situation. But improvement is important. 
How helpless sometimes you feel seeing life inequality because you can't give up everything and become poor because it is not a solution.
Sometimes someone reborn your inner soul and gives you a smile and inner peace which you have lost in day-to-day problems.
