Few days ago, I posted a forum about poverty. I apologize for the mistake I did, by posting the photo in that forum. I shouldn't have done that. But I was literally crying while posting that forum. The picture was of a very weak and poor and helpless child facing malnutrition, with a brutal man standing on the child so as to kill him. Although only the legs of the man were visible. The photo was a bit too disgusting, so it was removed by the authorities. I am sorry if that offended anyone, although my intentions were never to do so. So I am starting a new forum on poverty.
I think we in the West often underestimate the amount of poverty in the world. We take our own lives for granted, when to much of the world's population they would seem the height of luxury. 25% of the world do not even have electricity, and only 7% have ever used the Internet. And when even food is not always easy to come by, we should perhaps be a little more grateful for what we do have.
