🙏‼मीठा मोती ‼🙏 पैर में से काँटा निकल जाए तो.. चलने में मज़ा आ जाता है, और मन में से अहंकार निकल जाए तो.. जीवन जीने में मज़ा आ जाता है.. चलने वाले पैरों में कितना फर्क है , एक आगे है तो एक पीछे । पर ना तो आगे वाले को अभिमान है और ना पीछे वाले को अपमान । क्योंकि उन्हें पता होता है कि पलभर में ये बदलने वाला है । " इसी को जिन्दगी कहते है "? "खुश रहिये मुस्कुराते रहिये ‼‼ सुप्रभात ‼‼ 🌹 आपका दिन मंगलमय 🌹
