- In 1990, while having my dinner at a stall
- A pitiful woman with a child approached me
- And asked for some money to feed her child
- Looking at such pitiful sight, I gave her $50.00
- So as to buy milk powder to feed her child
- I told her that the money was for milk powder
- A few days later, she recognized me
- While I was again having my dinner at the same stall
- Again she asked me for some money
- I asked why she used up the money so fast
- It should last her at least another few more days
- She told me she was unlucky
- She just missed a digit in the four-digit gambling draw
- Otherwise she would have struck thousands of dollars
- I was very mad and told her off that
- The $50.00 was for powder milk for her child and her
food
- It was not easy to earn $50.00 (was very big at that
time)
- It taught me a lesson that if we want to give
- Be sure that the recipient is worth giving to
- And not misuse the money for gambling
- It is not easy to earn money
- Similarly I heard that a casino in my country
- Had caused many suicides by jumping down from high
building
- At the casino site but were never reported
- Gambling can break up families
- Gambling can make people take their own lives
- Gambling can destroy a good life
- Gambling definitely is sinful
- Never indulge in such activity
- Never lose your creditability
- Never lose your own soul to this evil of life
- Be a man of reality
- Be a man of creditability
- Be a man worth living a life
- Never allow gambling to destroy your life.
