WE ARE NOT EQUAL, WE CANOT BE EQUAL, WE WILL NOT BE EQUAL BUT WE CAN GROW TOGETHER.

There is a story of two trees growing together in an area. One of them is the smallest tree and other tree standing close to it was the longest tree in the forest. One day, the smallest tree in its wisdom understanding all the differences declared with loud voice looking up at the tallest tree. 
  • Hi friend,
  • We are not equal
  • We cannot be equal
  • We will not be equal
  • But I say definitely
We can grow together taking the same water and manure forgetting all the differences we hold. Yes friends, this is an important idea to be grasped by all of us. When we are moving along with people who are not economically equal, not of high position, not of highly talented we need not be worried. There is a space for everybody in this world. The differences do not make us small. It is the attitude towards others which makes each one of us small or big in front of others. In the parable of Master distributing the talents in the Gospel we see that everybody is given worth by giving different number of talents, like 5,2,and 1 according to Master’s choice. God allowed this difference as good in His mysterious way. He is not at all bothered about the quantity of result; he is looking at us in our faithfulness according to our talents. Instead of putting ourselves down in midst of high talented people we can think and grow day by day. We can grow in God’s grace. The scarcity of something in our life is wonderful occasion to take the hand of God for a miracle. Jesus himself told that it would be for the revelation of glory of God in him in his answer to the question about the child being born blind. The scarcity of wine gave the first occasion for Jesus to perform his first miracle. You may be the next person in whom Jesus wants to perform his next miracle. Let us humbly submit ourselves to Jesus.

Messages of the nature: every small and existing animate and inanimate things of the creation can communicate powerful messages to one’s life. This calls for openness towards the nature in life and to respect it. This process brings down the stress and strain of one’s life situations.

Family apostolate: visiting the family members to understand the situation of a prisoner and encouraging them to accept the prisoners as they are, is a crucial step in the whole process.

I love what you said. You started it with a negative statement but you also made sure that you will end it with an uplifting message. if the world cannot give us the equality that we deserve, then we should dream to grow together. That depends on our eagerness to succeed! By the way, if you really want to succeed, you must have God with you because success without him is nothing. We should always grow together but we should also let God be part of our lives.
