Day Twenty Eight, February 19, 2011

homeless in Shanghai

Can you imagine being all alone and homeless in a city of 20 million?

Can you imagine having to live on discarded scraps?

Can you imagine survival being your only obsession?

unable to look the other way today…

      Before christmas i went to visit a home for children who have no parents. It was a very cold day, we had snow outside and it was still snowing. I saw the kids playing outside wearing sandals with socks, no gloves and no caps. I was freezing in my down jacket and my nice and warm leather boots. That made me feel so sad – the truth is – there is poorness all over the world and sometimes it is right around the corner 🙁

      1. True Anja, it really is heartbreaking…
