writing a letter

writing a letter

If you write a letter to someone, do you think it will make a difference. Probably not more than likely they won't read it. Then if the do they probably won't do anything. it really is a waste of time especially if your writing to someone famous or like that. Theres really no use in doing it.

what if i have been born in africa

If i had been born in Uganda in Africa I would more than likely be living in poverty. A true poverty unlike that of what is called poverty in the USA.  I would live in a shanty, which is a very poor structure put together with scraps and what ever can be found. I would be living in a place where I would earn about one to two dollars a day.  I would be hungry and I wouldn't be able to buy from the dollar menu at McDonald's. Food would be a struggle to get. I wouldn't have the things I have now.  I probably would be wearing whatever was available for clothing, and would be glad to get clothing of any kind.  There wouldn't be any name brands to be concerned about.  I would just be glad that I wasn't naked and cold.  I wouldn't be concerned about the type of furniture I had. I would only be glad that the rain was not drenching my body, thanks to a piece of rusty tin over my head to stop it. My friends wouldn't be all upset because they had to go to school, they would be thankful and eager to go to school and learn and dream of all the great things and places beyond their poverty.  I wouldn't be upset when I was blocked on Facebook because some one didn't like a post, I would be upset because a friend or family member passed away from a disease or starvation and I would never see them again.  The way I would get from point A to point B would be by walking on my feet that I could not afford to put shoes on. My priorities would be much different, I would be fighting for life each day,  not trying to obtain more personal property.  I thank God everyday for all I have been blessed with and I pray everyday that all those less fortunate than me would be blessed as I have been.
