What is life when you have 3 meals a day and your neighbor goes to bed hungry?
What is love when you can only care for someone who has your color or speaks your language?
There's a reason you and I weren't created to occupy the world alone; there's a reason you don't have all you want.
If you are in the position to help today, do it, you may be the one who needs help tomorrow.
Remember that no one is independent - we are all we have.
