Father, father I am sick
It was a late Saturday afternoon when I decided that I wanted to go to the mall and shop a little for myself. I asked my brother to bring me there because iw was quite cloudy and I don't want to get wet in if in case it rains. On my way to the mall, I realized something that is why I wrote this.
Along Quirino Street while waiting for the green light, I saw a mother with her child walking towards our car and approached the window of the passenger seat where I was seated. The child was about 3-4 years of age, he is bald, skinny that you can't abrely see some flesh. He had hollow eyes which made him look very sick, His bones were like just a long piece of stick that might snap anytime. The boy was extending his right hand to beg for some money. Iw as about to pick some coins from my pocket but suddenly the green lights flashed on. I looked back as the car was moving and I saw their faces. They were totally DISAPPOINTED. This was the time I realized how lucky I was to eat three times a day or even five times a day. I realized that I was lucky that I can buy my necessities and roam around the mall. I just thought that these kida are so deprived from the things that average people do. That boy isn't the only one suffering from that kind of living but there are millions of them who are crying out for help but nobody hears them. They are considered the isolated people in our society just because they cannot support themselves. I am not denying that I get irritated when these children bug me while walking along the streets asking for money. Most of us have the same reaction when it comes to these things but now I know that these people are also created by God and must be respected like how most of us respect our average fellowmen. Help me make a change. A change that would make this a better place to live in where there is no discrimination among the society. Where law is for everybody and not only for some rich people who manipulates everything with money. Think about it. If every child in our community will be given a chance to taste at least some good things in life them maybe you wouldn't have to spend time reading posts like this one.
I am not asking for any money. I am asking if you can help in some ways to lessen this problem. Maybe donating your old clothes to these children can make a big change. :)
