its crazy how we see those commercials late at night about those children around the world that are suffering from poverty, but we never think about the fact that there are many people that are suffering from poverty in our own backyards...think about the all the people you see begging on the streets (yeah some are faking it, but others really are suffering), the children with their mothers sleeping in the coves of buildings in downtown, or even the random people you notice walking down the street carrying everything they own in a plastic bag...before going out and helping others that are miles away from home (although we should help) we should look at those in our own neighborhoods or cities...i've always learned that it is great to help others, but helping others should start at home before you go out and help others...go to homeless shelters or find other city programs and get ideas...its the best way to get started...spread the message and those that are less fortunate..especially during this holiday season..
