How Lucky We Are 1

p.s " ( some of the pictures below would be disturbing, yet touching,,,,, )

In this very first day of new year,,,

i would remind every readers of mine, how lucky we are today.

how fortunate we are,,,

how little our problems are, compared with others.

how selfish is our act can be ?

and most importantly, how we not appreciate the things that we have,,,

In this "How lucky we are 1", I want to talk about starvation,,,
p.s : there will be another series later on, basically on how lucky we are compared to others....

------------------------------------------

For most of us, who have an internet....

food is not a problem that we need to think of, we can eat whenever we want.

eat whatever we want...

and, as much as we want...

we can eat just a 1/4 of it, 1/2 of it, 1 portion, 2 portion, etc

we can choose the amount of food we take....

but, ladies and gentleman.....

things is just way to different in another places,

in the suburb area, in slump area, at the side of the road, and many other places.

we used to saw it,,, SO MANY TIMES !!!!

but we pretend that we don't

we just simply ignore their existences.

all the pictures below, represent thousands of meaning.

please look at their expression, please put yourself in their shoes, and look at each picture for at least 30 seconds.

if you do that, you will understand the picture.

CASE 1


the picture above, is a cake made from mud

yes !! that MUD !!! semi-liquid mixture of water and some combination of soil, slit, and clay.

or also called "dirt cake"

FYI, people eating those food in some part of the world ( especially in Haiti )

and the taste will last for hours in your mouth, that taste of mud.


( try to look in google and online newspaper if you do not believe in it )

and they eat that cake 3 times a day !!!!


CASE 2


sometimes, they eat, and sometimes they dont,,,

its just simply painful to see this,,,


beggar in Bodgaya, India


beggar in Indonesia


beggar in America


beggar from Kabul - Afghan

CASE 3

They are dying for food, and they will do anything for food


in Africa


in Korea


in Armenia


case 4

worst case which caused by starvation

i will show you one picture, which i think, powerful enough to change the way you think.

its so heart breaking, saddening, and painful
