"Money is like water"- I really love this analogy. I have experienced this first hand in my own interactions with the underserved communities. Coming from a privileged place, i find it my responsibility to acknowledge this privilege and use it to the best of the benefit of the underserved. After i left India and moved to states, i realized the power of having money and the change it can bring. When my 1 meal started to equal a whole stationery kit for a kid in India, i realised the power of taking a step back in my spending and keeping it aside for it to flow in the right direction. Since that shift in my brain, this calculation of money for pleasure v/s money for need always takes place. And i am really grateful to have this privilege of being in 2 very diff. countries in terms of development and using my power in a manner that supports my community :)
