Situational Tour: Poverty at El Salvador

Poverty, Hunger...




Loneliness, abandonment….




And behind this: a smile



Where do they get it from?



It’s Hope…





Hope that someone will think about them


Hope is what keeps them alive… I thought…




Where is your family? I asked a lonely boy…


He went abroad to find a job,


She is always fitting to get joy…



How do you feel little boy?


“What else would I want?” ….He said


“More than being alive?”



I thought I went to help,



but instead I received a great lesson:



“Appreciate what you have…”



“Things could always be worst than now…”



I continued to look around:



“How is everyone else doing?”…



Some walking to the houses,


Willing to give chances….


Giving them what they could give:
food, medicines, hope, a smile…




Some little kids were only playing around,


“Come and help!” That’s why we are here… Said their dad.



“We have to leave” …



From this place, I take a beautiful memory indeed…


Something in what I can always believe…
