Eid to the poor

As most of the people of our country suffer from the worst of all diseases, 'poverty', they never get the chance to enjoy and share the joy of Eid. As the elders were busy discussing their stories of how the haggling for purchasing their sacrificial animals at the cattle market went, many street kids, even on the day of Eid were begging meat from door to door. The sad truth is that even if they got meat from different houses, they sold it somewhere as their family was not able to cook that meat for them. It's really sad… For them, the Eid days are the only days when they can get some good food to eat. For a rickshaw puller, the Eid is the day when he gets some extra money. It's our duty to make them happy for everyday.
