Poverty


Poverty it is a global problem that affect half of world populations, its well know that poverty it’s everywhere, Europe, America, Asia and most of all in Africa where most of the poor people of the world live. Poverty it’s a global problem, so here is the question how can we stopped? It is possible to stop poverty?


Poverty it is a real problem but most of us just know the word (poverty), but we don’t know how it’s to live in that situation, or even have close encounters with poor people, imagine a babe crying not because of some kind of pain or something else, imagine a child crying because he is hungry can you imagine that? Yes we can but only when somebody ask us about it.


It’s hard to grow surrounded by poverty by death and all kinds of diseases, its hard for a kid be worried about something when they should have been playing and sharing time with friends, but in poverty that can not happened because they have to worried about food first that everything and their constant struggling to survive.


This poverty situation its touching when you have known people who live in those kind of places, where food it’s a miracle, where a toy it’s ignore and where be happy it’s a dream but sometimes dreams happened. And that’s what all poor people its waiting to happen with some help from above or some help of any place.


In conclusion poverty can be stop only if we participate more in helping our neighbors, if we care more about those who have nothing, if we not only worried about this situations if we participate more giving and sharing with those who needed, that’s what we can do, governments and politics they should do their parts in helping and developing programs to contribute in the improvement of global poverty.
