Reflecting on Workers day

Looking at the situation of workers nowadays, I see most people working to meet their economic demands. It is, however, unfortunate that the majority who struggle using their physical energy in odd jobs are the less income earners, while those in executive posts use less energy in earning their superfluous income.

Most of these poor underpaid or low earners are in the third world countries while the rich well-off individuals are in the first world countries. Though even in some developing countries the discrepancy between the rich and the poor, the employed and the unemployed is growing.

It is my prayer and hope that the well-to-do who have will share with the underprivileged and those in power will strive to distribute resources equally bearing in mind those who need them most.
