Looking @ Poverty ...

I have a series of photos worth looking at. Of course my view is just a personal one. Let's see if you agree.

Rock hard bun for Lunch. Anyone?

Keeping warm by carrying a simple "heater" during lesson.

A classroom without a roof.

Broken pot for cooking.

Bad sores due to coolness and no money to seek treatment.

"Walking the cow" after lesson.

Besides her mother's tomb.

A run-down kitchen.

A dinner too difficult to swallow.

When can they break free from poverty?

A little girl gathering woods in the cold.

Another girl gathering woods in the cold.

I don't know how you feel.
Mm..
Perhaps, there are certain questions we could ask ourselves
幸福的定义是什么？
什么是真正满足？
我们有真正感恩过我们所处的人、事、物、境吗？

Wa.. These questions may be too serious for some of you.
Relax a bit and see for yourself how beautiful these pictures were taken.
I don't know the photographer, but I think he/she captured the essense of poverty pretty well.

What had happened (or what is happening) may be far from what I desire.
However, if I were to look from another perspective, perhaps I had already gotten (or I am already experiencing) more than what I can rightly expect.

一切的不如意好像都是源之于过分的「要求」或是「不满足」。
I should learn to be more contented.
