Poverty – An Ignominy

Have you ever been without food for a longer period? Or have you ever had only one meal a day and stay clueless about the next meal? If you atleast have food everyday, then trust me you’re blessed. There are lots of people who are not even sure about their daily meal, but still survive life with whatever they have and manage to stay happy. If you feel that the life is tough, then think about the people who doesn’t even have food. Nothing is tougher in this world than surviving without food.

If you’re born and bought in a poor family, then it is not your mistake. But if you die poor, it is completely you’re mistake. Everything cannot be achieved in a day, but a slow and steady progression will definitely create a huge impact. Work as hard as possible and explore all the possible ways to earn money loyally. All we need is trust and confidence. Once if you have both of these then everything would be a piece of cake. Your perception is what that matters, If you’re mentally strong, no one can stop your success.

Statistics worldwide back this conclusion today, people born into poverty are much more likely to remain poor. Some people might escape it, but for the majority, hard work isn’t the solution when the economic system works against them. This is what constitutes the cycle of poverty.Not having access to healthy food, decent housing, electricity, water means you effectively live in severe, absolute poverty. And the cost of these things is too high for you to afford them, or at least you can’t afford them all. So, which one do you prioritise?

The childhood poverty rate is a vital indicator of children’s well-being. As a measure, the child poverty rate tells us how many children at a point in time are living in families with annual incomes or economic resources that are below a consistent threshold considered insufficient to meet basic needs. The child poverty rate is thus a key indicator of a society’s health and well-being. It contributes to our understanding of whether our economy is working well, if it is distributing the nation’s economic gains to its most vulnerable and dependent citizens.

If it is equipping the nation for the future by supporting the human capital formation of future workers. The child poverty rate is also a moral standard of what a society is willing to allow children to experience by the accident of their births into particular circumstances, which in many cases, means suffering the deprivation of basic needs by which to grow and come of age, facing diminished opportunities for success, and limited chances for full participation in their society’s growth and development.

One of the reasons we care about the childhood poverty rate beyond its role as an indicator, is the strong link between family poverty experienced during childhood and the well-being and outcomes for children, including into young adulthood. Over the past several decades we have witnessed the worse outcomes and conditions across various measures of child health, education, and behavior for children who live in poor families and their experience during childhood and into adulthood compared with non-poor children. #Inspired

Being rich doesn’t necessarily mean that you’re happy, meanwhile being poor doesn’t mean that you cannot be happy. It is all upto our mind and the things which we prioritise. So whenever you have something in abundance and the things which you think might help others please share it with the people who’s suffering. Atleast that might make them happy. The only way to get rid of poverty is by helping the one’s who are in need. Unless we exempt our selfishness and start helping the poor and needy we’ll never grow.
