wts right, wts Wrong?

As i stand in the pantry of my plush office sipping coffee while taking a break from work, i stare out from the window. There is some construction going on adjacent to the building and so there are small huts built as a temporary residence for the labourers working there. I stare at these huts and think,,,When will these people reach where i am?? perhaps generations...perhaps not even then..
Then i see a small child of about 10 years playing amidst these huts and again the thought comes to mind,, will he be able to even dream of working in an office like this.The two worlds are so near yet so far. But then i realised, does he need to reach where i am ?? I looked at him closely and found that he was happy, playing with a self made kite, with no worries or tensions. Can i dream of something like this to ever happen to me or to my kids or to my future generations ever ?? Can i see such a childhood for my future generations where they dont have to worry about exceling at school or at sports or in other fields? The answer is a definite no ! So the same question echos, Does he need to reach where i am?? He may not be able to eat three good meals in a day but what is important is that he is happy! In his own little world, He doesnt have to think about learning math, reading newspapers keeping himself up to date on current events,,He is Carefree, he is enjoying! So why does he need to be in an office like i am?? Perhaps he doesnt.. How can i say that i am in a better position than he is?
Wts right? Wts wrong?
