I woke up in the morning, not normally as I daily do, but with heavy eyes and lazy body. I was dreaming just before I woke up. They say morning dreams always come true. It was a long road as if some newly built concrete high way but there were only grass and trees on both sides of roads. We were a large group. Amongst the faces I remember, all were family members, very close ones. I don’t remember to see ma and pa. I was coming from the far end of the road towards them. And suddenly it started raining and I felt some kind of music in my ear, I don’t know was it the music of rain or something within me. But the beats were loud like bhangra in jab we met song nagada and I could not stop myself from dancing. As I started dancing, with me other also started then I realize its only the music of rain. Everybody was enjoying, laughing and dancing. And I was waking up to a wonderful morning.

Do we always need materialistic things to make us happy or to enjoy or to laugh? No it is always within us. We only have to listen to it. Sometimes it needs some kind of stimulator. As in above case it was rain. We will not need this stimulator the day we start loving ourselves. We will always be content. If I am happy the whole world will be happy too.

India's wealth to double in 5 years; may grow to $6.4tn: Report

According to the Credit Suisse Global Wealth Report published for the first time, the total wealth of India has trebled in a decade to $3.5 trillion. By 2015, the country's wealth could nearly double to $6.4 trillion.  

Guys whats your vies on it. Also as per the report India's wealthy people will be able to double their assets by 2015.

But my point is what will happen to poor of the country? Will they be a part of this Wealth Run? Or will they be just the mute spectators of Rich gets Richer and Poor gets Poorer?

The corruption is looming large and it will not be any wonder that due to this plague the wealthy becomes wealthier. Also the famous saying is that money begets money. So when poor doesn't have the money then how will they beget the same.

The second issue which I feel is how sustainable this growth story be?

Can we leave behind the people in BPL(Below Poverty Line)?

Do you know whats the BPL limit in India? If yes then post it.
