In this world of excess... I see people around me ..waste food all the time. Without any remorse.You were right. Moving!! I wish more people are aware of how lucky they are and learn to respect what they have.Thanks for posting this!!
Thank you for posting this. When holidaying in Fiji I watched the incredible wastage in the resorts and then visited the villages where there was so little (and yet so much...). Very humbling. We can also ask ourselves - what is our own form of "starvation" in the Western or consumerist society?
Ramesh, this was quite a moving video. There was one more picture of a somalian child doing rounds on email. When I see them, I am in tears of gratefulness for the food I have everyday. What an unjust world this is??Diaparities on every account -- from the basic food to health to everything!!

Thanks Melissa. If we spare a thought for the world's hungry, every so often, we can make a kinder and gentler world.

@athivas - Wasn't it moving. We should indeed thank the Lord for what we have. There is so much misery in the world; we have been specially blessed.
