A man's value and standing in society entirely depends on his utility in the present

However, many assume rightly or wrongly, that what they had rendered service in the past count as their worth and crave for gratitude and respect based on that assumption.

Others think or dream that they are going to serve all and would bring heaven to earth in the future and expect lot of accolades and bounties based on that.

Those who dwell on past or future are sure to face heartbreaks

Only the present is of any real significance.
If I am of no use to anyone this moment, my place is in the dustbin.

Difficult to digest? That is life.
