You Need Courage to Tap Into Your Inherent Empathy
Your actions can change the world.
A little girl in a dress of tatters with her hand out and head low in hopes of collecting enough money from strangers to feed her little sister, wrapped in a shawl and tied across her midriff peering through her shoulders.
At the age when the only burden that her tiny shoulders should carry is a backpack, she is looking after another human being.
Her plea for change had me drop out of an argument with a doctor who claimed that higher education doesn't lead to happiness.
The privileged doctor claims that higher education doesn’t lead to more happiness while a little girl goes around begging for scraps is the epitome of inequality.
Sadness and misery reflected in her eyes, she was tired from the world, and her spirit was so shattered that she only asked for money once, and then she spotted a broken wooden stool in the corner.
Her tiny feet carried her to the stool, she finally had a sigh of relief after sitting down, while her little sister bawled at the top of her voice for food.
It was heart-shattering, the little girl had more responsibility than most people don’t experience until their late twenties.
