What's His Mistake?


After seeing the cover page of Frontline Magazine, i was in deep pain. There were certain questions which came to my mind like:--
In Our Country small children die because of hunger, Who says, green revolution made India a "food self-sufficient" country?
What is the point in claiming "India has one of the highest GDP growth rate in the world", when we can't feed our children?
Where God has gone, can't he see such a painful situation?
Why these small children are paying for our misdeeds?
What we will achieve through moon missions, developing our own cryogenic engines?
Do we really deserve to be called 'a great civilization'?

Likewise, many more questions arouse. After thinking for more than an hour and searching within myself, i got only one answer and that's. No doubt, the reality is hard but this should not stop us from doing our work. I mean, take for example, a software engineer, working in a multinational company having an airconditioned office, earning a decent amount of money, having all luxuries at home, in a way having a successful life, if pays his taxes honestly then he or she is contributing, though indirectly.
I think, every body need not to become a social activist because we need engineers, doctors, pilots, lawyers, managers, architects, authors, and also politicians!
If you have some other view also then kindly comment. I am really looking forward for your views.
