Bambino's

I've just watched an interview on CNN's Talk Asia with a women who's dedicated her life to helping children in this world.

A woman who survived a childhood of EXTREME poverty and horror ...and yet grew up to give so much hope to others.

It just seems like everyday lately I see more and more things in this world which make me soooo grateful for the life that I have.

I was curled up watching this interview thinking how DAMN lucky I am that my biggest worry in the world right now is not being able to choose which country I'd like to see next in the world.

MY GOD I am blessed.

And I think it's such a damn shame that half of this worlds children have to grow up being beaten, raped, or sold into slavery.....that's if they haven't starved to death first of course.

Meanwhile the other half grow up in absolute luxury by comparison and yet half of them don't appreciate what they have complaining their lives are too boring and thinking they're hard done by for not having enough money on their cellphone.

What the hell?

I mean, I am sorry about my language (grandma I really am sorry), but for FUCKS sake.

It just makes me so angry. I REALLY don't think the world should be like this.

These are CHILDREN.

There are children born everyday into lives of torture, abuse and absolute poverty.

And it's just not right.

Children are born innocent and beautiful and they deserve every chance their is in life.

I wish I knew how to give them that.
