The World Today

Today, many countries in the world are plagued with natural disasters. People are seemingly helpless. But it seems like people around the world, all around the world, are flooding natural disaster-struck places with love. Donations and aid come pouring in. The government sector for almost every country are helping themselves out and humanitarian groups are striving to help out in these place.

If you think you are living in comfort, think again.

Our world rates wealth over courage and comfort over commitment. We think that nothing will ever disturb our loves. We are surprised when people get sick and die. We think that technology can fix everything. We take our safety for granted. We have more degrees but less sense. We have more medicine but less wellness. We've added years to life, not life to years. We build everything bigger, but not necesssarily better. We have more convenience but less time. We have more communication but less understanding. We make heroes out of actors but have no idea who the real heroes are.
