I have seen and experienced poverty myself and thus I know how it feels to be abandoned when you need it the most. Fortunately, I was blessed with an amazing family and with each other, we raised ourselves from such conditions.Some of the best memories of my life are the ones from when we were poor.Thanks to those times I realized that with the love of my family I was never really poor, I have always been very rich.Love is fundamental, however it doesn't take away hunger. I am aware that there are many kids out there that are not as fortunate as me and don't have a family. There are others that have a family but is broken. And there are also parents suffering from not being able to help their children and themselves. I have seen it. It is sad, very sad!
I am just an average person, however, I want to die knowing that my life had more meaning rather than just to live to feed myself.
I believe that a little help from many people becomes a lot of help and that is why I am here.
