I always feel so bad when I see on t.v , places that have so less then we do and realize how bad things can be in other places . So many times we feel bad for ourselves and wish we had more or wish that we could change our lives some how without realizing how lucky we truely are . We have a roof over our heads and food to eat every day , we have heat to keep us warm in the cold and cooler clothing and fans for in the summer . I wish I had some idea's as to how to help others that have so much less then we do but don't know how we could go about helping others that are so far away . There are so many different things that you can dontate to , to help others in other countries that are less fortunate but so often you find out that the money you are sending for these people is being kept by the organizations for the time it takes them to get people involved and so little of the money you send actually goes where you intended it did . I can't imagine a life where there are more people on the road then in houses as we don't see this where I come from . I can't imagine all that they have to endure everyday . My heart breaks for these people as everyone deserves to live a nice happy life that they can be grateful for , but so often this is not the case .
