“ This Too, Shall Pass ”
poverty

sigh.


i'm very much disturbed lately. to a sense i don't dare to waste;
for every bite that i might take, a sadness comes to place.
every meal in high-class restaurants were made with inch of quality,
these i don't care, for what's disturbing me is third world poverty.
you see, we think we might not have all things good
but their families and children, they, starve for food.
hampers from Lucky Draws, things we get for free,
not like us, their life isn't at all easy.
I MUST feed them too much, i'll give them a fright
i do not expect things in return, but a smile will be alright.

for kids so young, facing problems like AIDS
thier memories in childhood will silently fade.
i plead you people, to waste is not nothing,
their people are suffering and kids won't stop crying.



i am very much pissed off the way the world is reacting towards these people. they set up campaigns all over the world, millions of support, have millions of people donating huge sums of everything. clothes, footwear, protection and food, you name it. still, the third world country still faces things like poverty. why? because things were done once in a while. things are not enough down there. i wish i could give my everything, but it don't seem to be enough. i figured, the only way i could do is by just not wasting. and in a blog i cannot do anything, but to tell you people that if you don't think you can finish all the food that you buy, then might as well don't buy! how i wish i had alot of money and supplies for the kids down there. :(

dearest God, i plead you to mercy the poeple who are suffering more than we are right now, namely the third world country. amin.
