The Ironies of Life and Living - I


I thought to himself, ‘It is not a privilege to be born into a rich family after all. Granted, the rich do not need to worry about where their next meal was coming from. But, at the same time, because they had never experienced hard times, they normally did not appreciate what they had … until it was gone.’ This was true with I, who having had the privilege of living in comfortable surroundings all his life, driving expensive cars and even going on luxurious holidays, now found himself in a situation where he did not know where his next meal was coming from. His friends had deserted him. He only had the clothes on his back and a bed to lie on. He was in hospital for medical treatment and did not even know who was going to pay his medical bills. He felt like ending it all!
