Hello every single one of you.
Today I'm here to share one of the most heart breaking experiences I've ever lived:
Last week I was sent to the outskirts of a state called "Sinaloa" here in Mexico with other two members of my team in order to scout the zone near a recently found chamber that belonged to a drug lord. When the area was secure we returned to a small town near the area where a small girl came near to us and ask for something to eat, for her and her brother. One of my teammates asked her where her mother was, but she didn't answer. The small boy approached and told us her mother was back at their home. We gave them some bread we had and told them to take us to their house to also give her mother something to eat. When we arrived to the children's house my heart stoped, it was nothing but 4 fucking sticks holding a sheet and then is was the lady. She looked old and barely holding to life, the girl told us that it was her father who kept them on that situation, but her mother denied it, only she knows why. We gave them our last portions of food and water and some money we had and told them to kept it away from the father/husband.
I used to wine about my life, but now life itself showed me there are people out there who suffer more than me or than anyone else. Since that day I've been having slepping problems. People out there is starving and all I can do is give a fucking little piece of bread and beans. That's not fucking fair.
Anyway, I only wrote this to tell you that whenever you feel like complaining to think it twice, you're not the only one suffering, you're not the only one with problems, you're not the main center of attention.
Feel free to say anything, share your thoughts and opinions.
Sincerely,
Keith A. W. L
The way I see it, we all, as humans, have problems. To say that someone has an easier life may be correct, but that doesn't mean that the person has a cushy time. Social problems, loneliness, depression and obsessions are there for the 'cushy-living' people. Life is a piece of shit; it may be a bigger pile for some, but that doesn't change the fact that it's still shit. Sure, I'm not one to speak; I've got a cushy life compared to others, but that's only by comparison.
There's a lot to be said about poverty, and about all the ways we could try to help, but in actual fact, the only thing we can do is try to reduce the amount of shit on our plate, and I think everyone has too much.
1044945 No argue about life being a piece of shit. We all have problems but I want to to is to help people to reduce their problems, I may not be able to do it, but I can give it a try. And while I'm able to do it I will. Besides, one thing is having a shitty time and other thing is being born in a shitty situation.
