I see families walking on the streets, dressing their young 3 year old daughters in expensive clothing. I see ladies offering their bodies to get money to replace their old jandals.
I see people throwing away food because they just ordered too much. I see people rummaging through the bins because they haven't eaten yet.
I see people with great big cameras taking photos of the streets. I see people on the streets more beautiful than their photographs.
I see people looking down at the less fortunate ''homeless'' like they're trash, and i see them looking back at them like they are naive.
We're living in a world that beggars are begging for money, to give to other beggars.
Where we simply would rather look away from the less fortunate and walk to the next shop. Where it's easier to pretend they don't want help. Some do, some don't. Where we would rather carry on with out mundane day, than to take a minute out to do something to help. Where it just is not on our minds.
Why is it so easy for us to shake our heads in the midst of the homeless, the addicted, the abandoned and carry on with our lives like we never saw anything? Why is it so easy.
We live in a corrupt world, but that does not mean you too have to be corrupted. Don't ignore the problem - it will only worsen.
Dr. Nourozi: Prescription - love and caring for others less fortunate.
